Will alcohol kill ants?

Ants are one of the most commonly found household pest, finding their way into almost every home. A quick, cheap, and easy way to rid your home of these pests is to create a mixture of rubbing alcohol, water and dish soap in a spray bottle and use it where you have seen ants.

The mixture is cheaper than paying for a pest control company and is a way to ensure that no harsh chemicals are brought into your home. The rubbing alcohol is toxic to the ants, making it dangerous for them to breathe as well as chemically burning the insects and drying them out, eventually killing them.
