RE: Do we need Boron in our Gardens/Body

in #homesteading7 years ago

This can be used to control ants. ???
Never tried it, just remember hearing about it...

  • I like adding epsom salts to my garden.
    ...and wood ash when I burned wood.
    I'm going to have to look into borax more...

Yeah, it is commonly used for killing ants. They mix it with sugar water or honey water, and leave little dots of liquid bait traps. Have to put it on a smooth surface that will not absorb water.

Good information on the ants, thank you!
