Directions:
1. Make a 1% boric acid and 20% sugar solution by dissolving 1 tsp. of boric acid and 6 Tablespoons of sugar in 2 cups water. Do this in a clear jar so you can see when all the boric acid crystals are dissolved.
2. Soak some cotton balls in this bait solution.
3. Make bait dispensers by punching holes in an old margarine lids (careful with this part). Put the cotton balls inside and cover them with the lids so the bait won't dry out. I have also used berry containers with success.
4. Place the containers where you see ants.
5. Clean the containers and freshen up the bait solution 1X a week.
6. Be patient, let those worker ants continually carry boric acid back to feed ants in the nest.
