Guest guest Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 Set the jar in a shallow dish that has some soapy water in it. Just put a drop or two of dish soap in the water, and the ants will not be able to reach your kefir. -------------------------------------------------- From: " amy " <ahealthynewme@...> Sent: Monday, April 04, 2011 9:03 AM < > Subject: Ants in my Water Kefir Help!!! > While going to strain my water kefir (first ferment), I noticed lots of > ants floating in my jar.

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Hi Amyjo, I use a coffee filter with a rubber band to secure it which allows the kefir to breathe and keeps unwanted guests out.
