Get Control of Ants & Aphids in Your Garden with This Simple Trick.

How to get control of pesky ants and aphids in your garden organically with this simple trick. Other than spraying the bugs off of our plants I am trying this method to kill the ants. So, when ants consume the borax bait, it interferes with their digestive system and gradually kills them. This slow kill allows time for the worker ants to consume the bait and take it back to the colony/nest to share with the rest of the colony and the QUEEN. I read that not only will the ants defend the aphids from other bugs, that the ants love that sweet sticky stuff that the aphids release so much that they will actually milk the aphid by rubbing their abdomen!!!! YUCK!!!! While finishing up this video, the lady bugs arrived, and I released them into the garden. They were there working like an army this morning when I watered. I realize there is no guarantee that the lady bugs will stay but glad they are working for the time being. I have ordered some praying mantis pods as well. Video to follow.
