Its horrible its like 42 degrees now . The sugar ants are easy to get rid of .

Mix in a jar-

1 cup water, 2 cups sugar, 2 tablespoons boric acid. Than add cotton balls . Let them soak up the mixture as you want the balls fairly wet.

Place them in areas traveled by the sugar ants . They eat this stuff and die . I am not sure how it works but by going back to colony they kill them all.

NEVER place the cotton balls directly on the counter,floor,etc I place them on piece of flat tin foil,little flat dish etc. Some say the boric acid can discolor tiles,etc but perfectly fine when placed on tinfoil,etc.

This has wiped out sugar ant problem I once had and they NEVER came back. In theory if your kitchen counter,etc is clean you don't get them but that's not true in florida and they seem to even be attracted to toothpaste in the bathroom.

Replace the cotton balls every 2 or 3 days and in 15 yrs she won't have any sugar ants lol just kidding it took me 2 weeks and again gone for yrs.


#### If she has pets that can get to this than she can't do it .
