Boric Acid. To make a pests killing mixture you will need 1 tbsp of boric acid (it is commonly sold as borax), 1 tsp of sugar, peanut butter or honey and 4 ounces of water. Mix these ingredients and spread the solution in areas where the bugs were spotted. The sweet ingredient will attract, while the borax will poison ants. Vinegar. Vinegar repellents are also an effective way to fight with annoying bugs. It is very acidic and ants usually try to avoid it. Mix water and vinegar in 50-50 ratio and then add 1 tbsp of eucalyptus or peppermint oil (you can also add cinnamon, garlic powder or pepper to make the solution more effective). Spray the prepared mixtures onto the ants trails. Read more: http://pestkill.org/ants/carpenter/
