Ants Are Invading! What Do You Do?

When we found out our life was being “invaded” by twins we bought a house. Little did we know that we would have another invasion- ANTS! Every spring they reappear in my kitchen in search for something sweet. As parents we have enough to worry about without the added stress of finding an army of ants in the kitchen every morning! So Recently I turned to our Twiniversity friends for some tips to help me with my ant problem and you did not let me down. I asked “What do you do to keep ants out of your kitchen?

Spring Cleaning: Make Your Kitchen Shine!

In this series we will spring clean room by room. (Make sure to read this article to help you get started) Today we will focus on the kitchen. Remember to prioritize with your personal circumstances and delegate jobs to others in the household when possible. To get you started this is what you will need:

1. Rags
2. White distilled vinegar
3. All-purpose cleaner (a mix of half vinegar and half water in a spray bottle will do)
4. Baking soda
5. Broom
6. Mop
7. Floor cleaner appropriate for your floor
8. Vacuum cleaner
9. Lemon

(Note: White distilled vinegar works as a “green” disinfectant killing many germs, bacteria and mold and you don’t have to wear gloves while using it! Do not use on granite since it will etch the surface thus ruining it!)
