<human>:  How can I get rid of ants in my house without using chemicals?
<bot>: The most effective way to get rid of ants without using chemicals is to locate and remove the ant nest. This will eliminate the source of the ants and stop new ants from entering your home. Additionally, you can create a barrier with kitchen staples like vinegar, pepper, and citrus or cinnamon oils, or deploy natural ant repellents like diatomaceous earth or borax near entry points. You can also try to draw the ants away from your home by setting up homemade bait traps with food like sugar and water.
