Ants - How to keep them from your plants!

Trying to keep the ants from decimating your plants is a common garden problem but I think I have found a product to help... The Happy Gardener sells a Foliar Feed with Cinnamint - This product has everything..

  • Micornutrient foliar feed
  • Great for indoor plants, roses, vegetables & edibles
  • Effective for controlling ants

Hear what one user had to say:

I have a 128 sq. ft. strawberry garden (for a family of three - we love strawberries!!) I used the Foliar Feed with Cinnamint because we have ants, the plants grew all over the place and the ants stayed away. The 48 plants have outgrown their bed in the first year! I've already got some flowers coming up and can't wait to taste the first berry of the season!

I also read some great Ant Deterrent Tips from GreenLivingTips.com which also endorse using cinnamon...

- Sprinkle cinnamon or place in cheesecloth bags in affected areas. Cinnamon was a very popular choice with quite a few readers reporting it being highly effective
- Quite a few readers found cinnamon sprinkled across ant scent trails to be very effective

and Mint...

- Planting mint around vegetable patches, flower beds and around the house
