I recently got a peach tree and ants are all over it. They even moved on over to my cucumber to. Does anyone have any suggestions on some at home remedies or non toxic products to keep them away? Google said water and dawn but I’d like to know what worked for y’all. Thanks

cinnamon all over the topsoil. prune any and all branches touching the ground. favorite trick i've ever seen is a wrapping or two of duct-tape around the trunk, sticky-side out.
