|
 |
Goddamn ants. Usually they stay away from the corners in the house but then sometimes they deside to launch a mega attack! Like 20min ago I came home and wanted to take a shower because i was sweaty and gross after running, so I enter the shower and what do I see? A million ants in the corner there like a fucking mat. Ofcourse I then take the shower hose and spray them with cold water and try to put them in the drain (yes, I'm ashamed for killing living creatures but I just can't stand them!) but they just keep climing up again! i hope I injured the though, so that they have to kill each other.
EDIT: And the ants seem to just be in the "NEW" part of the house, it's not new but newer then the rest. I mean the older part was built sometime before the russians came here, and the russians frickin lived here and still the part that they lived in is free of ants.

They're swarming I think. Have they got wings?
Every say once a year the nest releases "reproductives".

Get the traps that give them poisoned food in it. They take it and bring it back to the colony and every ant that eats it dies including the queen.

Maybe these ants are after your computer and electronic devices.
Ants invade Huston, Eat computers

(I used the first link but I am sure there is better info out there)
I have/had a bit of a ant problem this summer too. I would kill on spot and they would end up somewhere else. They were on my computer desk and another day on my coffee table.
You have to clean the floor really well because they leave a scent trail for the other ants to follow. I used bleach. That is why you don't move the ant traps once you place them.

best way to ensure they never come back is to set fire to your house.
