Does baking soda really work as an ant killer, or is it just another DIY myth? Join hosts Mark Buzz and Anna Bugs on this episode of the Buzz & Bugs Podcast as we dig into the science behind baking soda and its limited effectiveness in tackling ant infestations. While it can impact individual ants, it’s no match for entire colonies or picky species. We’ll also share tried-and-true alternatives like diatomaceous earth, boric acid, essential oils, soapy water, and ant traps for more robust DIY solutions. And for those stubborn infestations, we’ll discuss why professional pest control is your best bet for complete colony elimination. With insights from the president of a pest control company, this episode is packed with expert advice to help you stay ant-free!
