Equipment

  • spray bottle
  • mixing glass or bowl (A Pyrex liquid measuring cup works great because you can mix and then pour easily)
  • masking tape (optional)
  • black pointed marker (optional)

Ingredients

  • 6 oz apple cider vinegar
  • 6 oz warm water
  • 2 tablespoon baking soda
  • 1 tablespoon powdered black pepper

Instructions

  • Put at least 2 tablespoons of baking soda in a mixing glass. Add 1 tablespoon of powdered black pepper.
  • Mix the baking soda and black pepper thoroughly using a popsicle stick or spoon.
  • Add about 6 oz of warm water to the baking soda and black pepper mixture.
  • Stir until thoroughly combined 
  • Pour the baking soda mixture into a clean, empty spray bottle.
  • Slowly add about 6 oz of apple cider vinegar to the spray bottle. Little by little so it doesn't fizz over!
  • Once all the fizz has settled, close the spray bottle tightly.
  • Mix the ant spray thoroughly by shaking the spray bottle.
  • Use a piece of masking tape to create a label and stick it to the spray bottle after, so that everyone in your house knows what’s inside the spray bottle.
  • Now you’re all done and ready to use this homemade ant killer around your house!
