Yesterday several listers asked for information as to a remedy which would = get rid of ants. I have another organic remedy is anyone in interested. M= y sister is a herbalist and runs a business raising herbs and creating prod= ucts from these herbs. When I asked her what was the stuff she used in the= bottle of ant rid she sent me, she said it is a mixture of pure essienti= al oils of pennyroyal and eucalyptus. She suggests that since we are worki= ng around animals to mix some - say 20 drops in about 3 oz. of water and sp= ray it on the problem area. (It would be far too strong in the pure essenti= al oil state for using on or around animals. We used it on the window sills= where the ants were coming in.) She has had farmers use her bug spray on t= heir chickens and chicks, they swear it rids them of lice. It was also use= d on a friends donkey to keep the flies off. I use the watered down spray t= o keep the bugs off me, it seems to work even on those pesky little gnats t= hat fly round. Hope this helps.
