Why DIY Methods Always Fail
Save yourself time, money, and frustration. Here's why store-bought solutions don't work:

Borax and sugar bait
Problem: Acrobat ants are not attracted to sugar-based baits
Result: Bait is ignored and infestation continues
Vinegar and water spray
Problem: Vinegar does not kill or repel acrobat ants effectively
Result: Infestation persists despite repeated spraying
Soapy water spray
Problem: Soapy water only kills ants it directly contacts, missing hidden colony members
Result: Infestation quickly returns
Stop Wasting Time and Money
The average homeowner spends $200+ on failed DIY attempts before calling professionals. Meanwhile, the infestation grows worse.
