Ants!


OK. This isn't my house, thank goodness. Butbutbut!!! It could be.

I feel like I'm cleaning down the counter tops every five minutes, yet the big, black ants keep on coming. I'm not big on throwing nasty chemicals around the place to drive them away and my momma recommended diatomaceous earth or boric acid. Both, however, kill as opposed to deter.

I know it may be asking too much to keep them away without killing, but does anyone have any recommendations? This is ahimsa, sugar!

(Hey, Rachel, let me know when you do the first limb, and then I'll link this post to it!)
