Peppermint Oil: Flying Ants' Nemesis in Your Kitchen

As Flying Ant Day approaches, swarms of winged intruders prepare their annual nuptial flight, often targeting kitchens. Mixing a few drops of peppermint oil with water creates a natural repellent, transforming your home into an unwelcoming fortress for these sugar-seeking pests.
This simple concoction disrupts the ants' scent trails, effectively deterring them from your living spaces. Experts recommend this method as a cost-effective and eco-friendly solution to keep flying ants at bay during their peak activity periods.
Interestingly, while humans find peppermint refreshing, flying ants perceive it as a hostile environment, prompting them to avoid treated areas entirely.
