I have a major problem with ants around my home & noticed that a lot of areas in Christchurch do as well so I searched online the other day for a remedy that was cheap & safe for pets so I can leave it around without worrying I have spent quite a lot of money on baits, sprays etc but they always come back & this lady says she no longer has them so I thought I would try it & share here for others if they wanted to give it a go along with me.
I hung 4 banana skins on the washing line to dry so the ants couldn't get to them first lol (& perfect weather for it now) it worked they have been up for 4 days & dried out now so I put them through my nutri bullet to blend into powder & laid this across the tracks the ants follow to their nests they were a bit stand offish to start but they are going for gold now, I will update as soon as I see the results hopefully in the next few days-week? but thought I would pop it on here if others want to give it a go now as well.
Original post below
ANTS! Whenever I have a problem with ants, I use an organic method I learned about. I dry banana peels all year round and then I crush in my mortar and pestle. I imagine you could put some in the blender if necessary. The banana will turn dark brown or blackish and provide you with a nice powder if you have a means of turning it into a powder. The ants will carry it off as they do just about everything and take it to the nest. The nest will die out. You see, the banana is high in potassium and ants can't tolerate potassium. It will kill them. It's a safe method if you have pets and small children around. No need for pesticides and just put it around the house and doors and they won't give you any problems. I've done this for years and it works. I don't have ants anymore but I used to get them every year. Drove me nuts.

For older job-seekers like Christine Black, the low unemployment rate has improved her odds of getting an interview.
The 61-year-old accountant recently got shortlisted for a call centre job, an improvement on five years ago when she applied for the same position and didn’t get a look in.
Being asked if you have any health issues or told you are over-qualified, (which she was for the call centre position), can be shorthand for “you’re too old,” and Black says ageism is still a problem.
“Somebody said to me ‘your life experience exceeds our expectations’ ... I know a lot of under-employed women between 50 and 65.”
A third of the workforce is over the age of 55, and the proportion working past retirement age has risen steadily.
In 2008, 15% of those aged 65-plus were employed, compared with just over 25% in 2022.
According to Stats NZ forecasts, by 2043 the labour force will have up to 386,000 people aged 65-plus, almost double the number in 2020.
The Human Rights Act prohibits discrimination on the basis of age, and unless it is a genuine qualification for a job – such as bar work – it can be unlawful for an employer to ask your age in a job interview.
