As much as we love summer, the warmer weather also comes with another, less welcome problem – pesky ants inviting themselves into your home.
Luckily, one cleaning brand, Purdy and Figg, has come to rescue with an easy hack that’s not only effective but also budget-friendly.
According to the pros, the answer is simple – and it’s already sitting in your kitchen.
”To stop ants from entering your home, you first need to figure out where they are coming from.”
To block the route, the experts advised to grab some baking powder and sprinkle a line by where they would usually enter.
Sharing the trick on TikTok, the cleaning pros said: ”This should make them turn around without harming them.”
Another pro tip they added was storing the leftovers properly.
”Also try not to leave open food out in your kitchen as this attracts them even more!”
Posted just one day ago, the clip has already gone viral, racking up over 700k views and over a hundred of comments.
But whilst some thanked the gurus, others were more sceptical and shared their top remedies.
”Isn’t it better to block the route outside.. where the ants go insiders… ?” one wondered.
