ants and scent trails

Post by deleted-451586 »

Why do you think ants will stay inside a circle made from sharpie marker? What is the effective chemical?

In the market place does industry use forms of sharpie to contain ants for pest control


Are there other animals that can be repelled by sharpie?

Experts in the forums are not able to answer questions that are research questions. You can find answers to these questions by doing library or Internet research.

If you have specific questions about what you read or about your project, Experts may be able to help.
