**DIY Organic Ant Repellent**

This easy organic solution can help eliminate ants from your yard for good:

1. **Wood Ash**: Sprinkle wood ash around fruit trees to create a barrier that ants can’t cross. It’s rich in potassium, calcium, and phosphorus, which are beneficial for plants and discourage ants.

2. **Ant-Killing Mixture**:
– Ingredients: 5 tsp powdered sugar, 5 tsp baking soda, a bit of water.
– Combine sugar and baking soda well.
– Cut the bottom off a plastic bottle, poke small holes, and fill it with the mixture.
– Place the bottle near the anthill.

The sugar attracts the ants, and the baking soda destroys the colony, including the queen.
