Vinegar is a powerful, natural way to repel ants from your home. You can spray equal parts vinegar and water directly on ants to kill them and then along their trail to stop other ants from following the path. Spray along baseboards or other areas you think they’re coming into your home so outside ants can’t find the scent trail. You’ll need to repeat every few days until they’re all gone because when the vinegar dries out, it loses its pungency.
