To keep ants away, an excellent way is to sprinkle the corners of the house with bicarbonate of soda. Distribute this ingredient on the walls and places where ants often walk in single file, you will see that they will no longer wander around the house.

Place the bicarbonate near any holes or cracks in the skirting board , so the ants will take it and take it to their nest, causing the queen of the ants to die.

Kill flies and mosquitoes with bicarbonate

Mosquitoes and flies do not tolerate bicarbonate, so using this ingredient represents a valid aid in keeping them away. An effective solution to prepare is as follows:

• Dilute a teaspoon of bicarbonate in half a liter of water
• Add 4 tablespoons of olive oil

Put the mixture obtained in a spray bottle and spray in the corners of the house and in the infested areas. The compound is suitable for both fighting flies and mosquitoes and can also be used by spraying it on doors and windows.

The results are effective and the house will be free from pest insects, using a product that is present in the kitchen and is practically free of cost.
