I read in a Magic Book, that you can also mix vinegar and water together in a spray bottle which is what I do and then spray in corners and on ants which will stop them immediately.

I have ants coming in my bedroom windows. I’ve tried the ant spray and that doesn’t help for too long. I want to try the vinegar and water and was wondering how to mix it. Is it half water and half vinegar.
