GENERAL INFORMATION: Planting mint around the foundation of your house is a healthy way to deter ants. You will typically want to follow the trail of ants, no matter which type, to their nest, in order to administer treatment. Destroy and remove every ant you find. If you have found them inside your home it is a good idea to fill the nest with a preventative treatment and then seal the hole with caulk.
Save bottle caps for use as ant traps, filling with bait and hiding where you have an ant problem. Be sure to keep away from children and pets.
Planting onions, chives and garlic among your plants is a healthy way to deter aphids.
