1. Whole cloves and bay leaves. Their odor is unappealing to your insect intruders. Place whole cloves or/and bay leaves around your house to prevent reinfestation.
2. Coffee grounds (even used will work well). The bugs proved to be very susceptible to caffeine. The workers lose their scent trails and the colony dies from starvation. Just empty coffee grounds along your house foundations and on their hills.
3. Natural repellant. Create a thick unbroken line out of cinnamon, citrus oil, powdered chalk, flour, talcum powder, turmeric, black/cayenne pepper, powdered charcoal, lavender oil, or salt around your house. Any of these is an excellent repellant, and the pests won’t cross this kind of defensive barrier. But keep in mind that it’s not permanent and you’ll have to replace the line from time to time (especially after a rainstorm).
