Hopefully ants are hibernating about now during cold weather in most of the U.S., but when they do come out they can be a real pain.  If you have had ant problems in the past and need to get rid of them, here’s a quick and easy tip from Pinterest:

Mix two tablespoons of borax with jam, jelly, honey or syrup until there is a paste. Smear some on some paper or a plate and put it where the ants are at. They should flock to it and eat it and take it back to the nest and it will act as a natural ant killer.

What a great idea!
