2.buy some boric acid(powdered) from your nearest household store.
3.take some all purpose flour(or wheat flour),sugar in the ratio 3:2.combine it with water and form a nice dough (quite similar to that required when making chapatties) let it not be too sticky or too dry.
4.add roughly 4-6 tablespoons of the powdered boric acid to the above dough.
5.make small balls out of the dough(roughly the size of a marble).
6.leave these balls all around the house ,preferably near the walls and near the places where the ants are found the most.
