ADVERTISEMENT

Are you tired of seeing ants invading your kitchen, cockroaches appearing in the dark, or rodents moving into your home? Would you like to protect your plants from snails without resorting to chemicals? Good news: baking soda is a natural and economical solution for fighting several types of pests. Find out how to use it effectively to get rid of unwanted intruders!
Cockroaches: an effective method
Cockroaches are resilient and capable of sneaking everywhere while multiplying quickly. But when faced with baking soda, they are no match!

The method:

Mix 80g of baking soda with 80g of sugar.
Sprinkle this mixture in infested areas: under the sink, behind appliances, near food sources.
Attracted by the sugar, cockroaches ingest the baking soda, which reacts with the water in their bodies... which is fatal for them.
Ants: A formidable remedy
Ants follow well-defined paths to enter our homes in search of food. With baking soda, you can stop their invasion.

The technique:

Mix 80g of baking soda with 80g of sugar.
Place this mixture where they can pass through (window sills, bottom of doors, cracks in walls).
Ants, attracted by the sugar, also ingest the baking soda, which disrupts their digestive system and eliminates them.
Bonus tip: To prevent them from returning, identify and seal entry points with putty or white vinegar!
