  1. I second (third?) the tea tree oil in the mop water. We’ve had sugar ants entering our kitchen seasonally for two years now. My husband dutifully goes around the house spraying some chemical that lasts maybe til it rains, if that. I kept saying we should research green alternatives on line but we just had a baby and seemed to be researching so many things, so it fell to the bottom of the priority list. (it shouldn’t have though!). One day I got fed up and sprayed the appeared points of entry with our kitchen cleaner that’s primarily tea tree oil. They stopped coming in there. This season we had the worst case, finding them all over the down stairs. I brought my sons diaper pail in the kitchen one day, which is scented with tea tree oil. I noticed no ants! I then put a few drops in my wash pail when I mopped the floor. That was two weeks ago and I haven’t seen a single ant since. I also found a infestation under our water hose reel which I sprayed with the organic kitchen cleaner (figured it was better than telling my husband since I’m pretty over the chemicals!) So here-here to the green option of tea tree to ward off ants!
