Do you know?

 1  Ants become confused by peppermint. Not that peppermint is particularly cryptic-but it is highly aromatic. Ants communicate by leaving chemical trails for their buddies following close behind. If you sprinkle some chopped, crushed peppermint (or essential oil) near an ant trail, you can break the chemical trail and disband the army. 







2 People miss out on the best part of garlic! Everyone thinks the main event is underground. Meanwhile, I can't wait to pop off some garlic scopes and get cooking. Before your garlic is even ready to harvest, you can snap off their curly, pointy flower stems for concentrated garlic flavor. Pick them young while they're still tender and enjoy!
