An Awesome Ant Killer: Dawn Dish Soap  |
| |
| I volunteer with wildlife and we use Dawn for everything! Cleaning animal pens, cleaning the animals if they come in with tar on them, and for keeping ants away. I found that this also works at home. I poured Dawn into the holes in my bathroom wall and it killed off the ants. And by putting a line of Dawn down before the ants get to the doorway, I managed to keep the ants in the bathroom only until they all died out. Normally I would just spray them and kill them, but using Dawn was so much easier and then I know my house rabbit is safe too which is a plus. So try it out if you ever need something safe to kill ants and it's a spot where you can feasibly use Dawn. | | | | | |

| | looks interesting.. is it supposed to be more natural or something? I'm always weary of what to use for ants etc, my folks just use the 'oldfashioned' stuff, & I keep wondering if better alternatives exist.. I heard of a bunch of stuff used to keep off ants, my ex-roommate at the dorm used 90+% alcohol!! :) /& it worked!:)) /not sure if it's pet-safe though-?/ | | | | | | |

| | I guess it is safer for the environment. It's safe to use around pets. What I used before was always Simple Green, which is good too and pretty safe around pets (I looked it up before and rabbits had to drink about a cup of it before half of them would die from it, so I felt safe knowing that my rabbits might lick the floor but could never lick up anything near a cup). Alcohol would be pet safe once it evaporated. I don't think many pets would be able to tolerate licking up 90% alcohol anyway though, so that's probably fairly safe. | | | |

| | Oh I hate that, they spray like that around schools and parks as well. One of my aunts swears by borax, but I haven't had much luck with it myself. I don't like Raid because it stinks. I've used powerful ant killers before that are way more toxic than Raid, but they didn't have that awful warning scent. I once smelled a girl's perfume at work that was exactly the scent of Raid though, so perhaps some people find it appealing. But I have more of the reaction to it that you do. | | | |

| | Dawn is a brand of dish soap. I'm not sure if other brands would work or not since they tend to be more watery. I do know that Joy will kill fleas though so it might work as well. | | | |
