Instructions: Mix ingredients together to make a paste. With apaint brush, coat one side of small cardboard squares, and place where ants have been seen. Replace the squares when they get dry. Safe to use where there are small children.

I had noticed ants in only one place (near the cupboard under the sink) so I only made half the recipe. I put the squares in the cupboard itself.

There were many ants stuck to the cardboard squares, but I was told that the "yeast" was the real killer for them...I dont know, but after one placement of the squares, I didnt have any more ants. I tried this because I had those ingredients on hand and didnt have to run to the grocery for something else. Its supposed to be safe for areas where there are children.
