How to Use Salt Kill Pavement Ants in the Driveway

Materials:

1) Coarse Salt (10 lbs)

2) Water (2 gallons)

3) Pot.

Instructions:

1) Boil water in a large pot.

2) Dissolve coarse salt in the boiling water.

3) Pour the salt solution over the pavement ant mounds.

4) Ensure that the solution saturates the soil around the mound.

5) Reapply the salt solution as needed (may need to repeat after a few days).

Tips:

- Apply the solution in the early evening when ants are less active.

- Avoid using on porous concrete as the salt may leave permanent stains.

- If the pavement is hot, cool it down with water before applying the salt solution.

- Be careful when pouring as salt solution may irritate the skin.
