NUMBER 1 ANT KILLER, A MUST READ.
*THIS SHOULD CHANGE YOUR MIND ABOUT USING ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS.....IF
YOU * *USE THEM???*
We live in the woods and carpenter ants are a huge problem. We have Spent
thousands of dollars with Orkin and on ant poisons trying to keep them
under control but nothing has helped. So when I read somewhere that
aspartame
*(NutraSweet)* was actually developed as an ant poison and changed to
being considered non-poisonous after it was realized that a lot more money
could be made on it as a sweetener than as an ant poison, I decided to
give it a try.
I opened two packets of aspartame sweetener, and dumped one in a corner
of each of our bathrooms . That was about 2 years ago and I have not seen
any carpenter ants for about 9 to 12 months. It works better than the most
deadly poisons I have tried. Any time they show up again, I simply dump
another package of NutraSweet in a corner, and they will be gone for a
year or so again. Since posting this information I have had many people
tell me of their success solving ant problems with this substance, when
nothing else worked. I found later that small black ants would not eat
the aspartame. It was determined that if you mixed it with apple juice,
they would quickly take it back to the nest, and all would be dead within
24 hours, usually. I have found that sometimes it will kill them, and
sometimes it does not. Not sure why, may be slightly different species of
ants or something.
Fire Ants: We got our first fire ant hill about 2 weeks ago. Poison did
not work. We tried aspartame and the ants ignored it until we got a light
rain. It was just a sprinkle, enough to moisten the NutraSweet and ground,
but not enough to wash it away. They went crazy, hundreds of them
grabbing it and taking it back into the mound. When I checked the mound 2
days later, there was no sign of the fire ants. I even dug the mound up,
and still saw none of them.
How does it Work: *Aspartame is a neuropoison.* It most likely kills the
ants by interfering with their nervous system. It could be direct, like
stopping their heart, or something more subtle like killing their sense of
taste so they can't figure out what is edible, or smell, so they can't
follow their trails, or mis-identify their colonies members, so they
start fighting each other. Not sure what causes them to end up dying,
just know that for many species of ants it will kill them quickly and
effectively.
As with any poison I recommend wearing gloves and washing any skin areas
that come in contact with this poison, and avoid getting it in your mouth,
despite anything the labeling may indicate.
