100% Natural Ways of Keeping Those Ants Away.

 
Ants, by themselves, are pretty harmless. Unfortunately, they almost never travel alone, and a infestation of ants at your home can be a huge bother, not to mention having to throw away food. Then there are the poisons that can be harmful to small children or pets you may have, or are just unpleasant to be around. 
Here are some natural ways to scare those ants away and prevent them from coming back using just natural, organic products most people keep at home or can easily get at the grocery store.
Cucumber / Citrus Peel
Place the cucumber or citrus fruit peel near the place where you see ant activity. Citrus fruit and cucumbers are toxic to a certain tiny mushroom ants feed on, and so they avoid them.



Cinnamon sticks and cloves of garlic
Follow the trail of ants and try to identify where they entered. For example: Windows, doors and various holes around the house. Place cinnamon sticks or cloves of garlic in it, as close as possible. Cloves of garlic give out a strong smell and so it is recommended to leave cinnamon sticks, which have a nice aroma. If you do choose the garlic, peel it, cut it up and then put it down. You can put cinnamon sticks in your pantry to prevent future ant visits.





Vinegar
Put some vinegar in a spray bottle and spray the places where you last saw the ants as well as their points of entry. Vinegar harms the ant's sense of smell and destroys the pheromons they leave behind them to help them find their way.


Talc / chalk powder
Create a small 'barrier' of talcum or chalk powder in the ants' points of entry. The talc, the material found both in talcum powder and chalk, destroys their sense of smell and makes it extremely hard for them to cross, so a little barrier will help prevent the ants from coming in where you don't want them.


Black pepper
Sprinkle some black pepper on the trail of ants and see how they quickly disperse. Now you can track them and see where they came in through. Make sure you sprinkle some black pepper there, too.


Mint
Another handy tool that disrupts the little intruders' sense of smell is mint. There are several ways you can use mint to do so. First, you can plant the plant in your garden and around your house, close to doors and windows. Second, you can place some mint leaves on the windows of your home. Like the cinnamon sticks, this too can be places in the pantry to prevent future break-ins.



Cornmeal
If you encounter a really big problem with an ant infestation, you may want to use cornmeal. Cornmeal doesn't just prevents ants or makes them run away - it kills them. Ants see it as food but in reality they can't digest it and they eventually die. It won't kill them as quickly as poison, but it definitely works and is definitely cheap and environmentally friendly to use in your home.

10 Tips For Surviving The Summer

The summer is at its strongest and it feels like you're just melting away. I know how that feels, so I gathered up a bunch of useful tips to help you keep your summer cool!
1. Dryer Sheets Keep Gnats Away
Did you know that Dryer Sheets have a chemical in them that repels gnats? This was shown in a recent study on HortScience! Keep one in your pocket instead of using bug-spray.
2. Freeze Aloe Vera Gel in an Ice Tray
You know that Aloe Vera is fantastic at treating various skin irritations like mosquito bites, burns, jellyfish stings and sunburns, but did you know that by freezing Aloe Vera gel in as ice-cubes is even more effective at relieving the irritation, thanks to the extra cooling of the ice?
3. Keep Your Feet Cool
Your feet carry you all day, but did you know that they also have a powerful effect on your body-temperature. Our feet is where a lot of circulation happens, so they can really make you warm. Soak them in cold water and feel how quickly your body cools down!
4. Quickly Cool Down Beverages
All you need is a bowl of water & paper sheets! Soak a paper sheet in water, wrap it around a beverage container (cans/bottles) and pop it in the freezer for about 10 minutes.

5. Dripping Popsicles? No Problem!
Grab a cupcake wrapper, slip the popsicle into it and PRESTO! No more sticky fingers!

6. Freeze Some Grapes
Want to keep your wine cold but don't want to dilute it with ice? Simply put some grapes in the freezer, then put them in the wine, it'll stay nice and chilled. (They're also fun to eat frozen)

7. Treat Mosquito Bites With Vinegar
Yup, that's right! Lightly soak a cotton ball with vinegar, then hold it tightly on the fresh mosquito bite – it will reduce the itching and swelling until it's gone. (psst! It also works on sunburns).

8. Keep hydrated by eating!
The kids are refusing to drink water? Why not put a watermelon in the fridge.
Rich in water (about 92% of it, actually), it's also very nutritious and delicious. Your little ones will feel like they're getting a treat while you make sure they're keeping well hydrated!

9. Drink a cup of hot tea
Yes, that's right! While you think that it's better to drink a cold beverage on a hot summer's day, a hot cup of tea will raise your core temperature, and once you're done, you'll actually feel cooler!

10. Eat spicy foods
Ever wondered why they eat such spicy food down in Mexico when it's so hot? The answer is similar to #9 – The chemical in the spicy food (Capsaicin) "tricks" your mouth into thinking it's eating something hot, which, in turn – raises your body temperature and makes you feel cooler.

5 Bonus pet tips:
1. If the asphalt is too hot for your feet – it's too hot for your dog.

2.  An ice cube in the water-bowl goes a long way – An ice cube with a treat in it makes an awesome summer snack!

3.  Brush your dog/cat's fur – this provides better circulation and cools them down.

4.  Keep the indoors cool – if you can't stand the heat inside, your pet can't as-well.

5.  NEVER EVER leave your pet in the car on a hot day! They can't cool themselves as efficiently as we can, so they can be in terrible danger.
Enjoy your summer!
