VERMIN ATTRACTED BY FOOD
u NO Scraps Are Around There Will
Be Little Trouble With Ants or
Reaches.

The surest way to keep a house free
from ants is to leave no food lying
about on shelves or in open places,
where they can reach it. Ants go
where they find food, and if the food
supplies of the household are kept in
ant-proof metal containers or in ice
boxes, and if all foods that may hap
pen to be scattered by children or 9th
ers is cleaned up promptly, the ant
nuisance will be slight. Cake, bread,
sugar, meat, and like substances. are
especially attractive to the ants, and
should be kept from them.
Reaches will not frequent rooms
unless they find some available food
material, and If such materials can
be kept from living rooms and offices
or scrupulous care exercised to see
that no such material is placed in
drawers where it can leave an attrac-
tive odor or fragments of food, the
roach nuisance can be largely restrict
ed to places where food necessarily
must be kept.
