It’s that time of year. The weather is warm, the windows are open letting in a breeze, and the ants are joining us once again.

It seems it happens the same way every year. I see one of those little guys and think it’s annoying.

Then I turn around there are 10 or 20 ants. Although I will use bug spray on the outside of our house, I really don’t like to use it inside.

Especially in our kitchen where we seem to get them the most.

I am always looking for a natural (and inexpensive!) way to get rid of ants. Over the years, I have tried quite a few different methods, and these are a few of my favorites.

So if you have those little buggers all over your house check out these great ways to get rid of ants naturally.

There are a variety of different ways to get rid of ants naturally.

Some smell great and others are a little stinky. Some of the things you may need to get rid of the ants are:

• garlic (minced)
• peppermint oil (I love this brand)
• vinegar
• cinnamon (ground from the spice section)
• cornmeal

How To Get Rid Of Ants With Garlic

Garlic is one of the best ways to get rid of ants naturally. I have used it multiple times with success. The downside to garlic is it smells.

So, on a hot day, you will be smelling that garlic all day long.

Just set out a small bowl with some minced garlic and the ants disappear.

After a couple of days, you can throw the garlic out and the ants should be gone.

Cornmeal To Kill Ants

Cornmeal is a very inexpensive way to kill off ants. Just lay out a small hill of cornmeal and they will take it back to their home.

The ants can’t digest the cornmeal and they will all die.
