Can I sprinkle borax around my house
When applied around the foundation of your house, borax will keep ants and spiders from entering your home. Sprinkle it on the weeds and vegetation in the driveway, walkway and sidewalk cracks. Caution: Borax is toxic to plants, so only sprinkle it on the vegetation you want to kill. Typical symptoms of toxicity from exposure to excess Boron or other ions are yellowing of leaf margins and tips and sometimes between veins. Symptoms progress to necrosis (browning) and premature drop of foliage. Re
