Argh, like 2 months ago I dropped on french fry on the floor and didn't see it till morning......when it was swarming with ants. Ever since then I've had ants, in the kitchen, in the bathroom, and the bedroom. The bedroom sucks because it's all carpet in here and these are tiny sugar ants(or whatever the tiny ants are) and you really can't see them in carpet, christ I had to spend 2 hours at 4am vacuuming up ants and spraying ant spray all around the baseboard. I thought I had it basically under control, ant spray all around the baseboards in all 3 rooms. Then today I saw 2 ants on the counter top, but that was it, didn't see any more, so whatever some will slip by the poison. I go and open the cabinet with the pots and pans in it, boom, loaded with ants. So I vacuumed them all up, spray down that cabinet with spray, and now I have a full sink of dishes to do when 20min ago there wasn't one thing in it. Fuckin ants.
get those ant cups...they worked for me when I had the problem a few years back...I put them in every corner the ants were likely to be and in my cabinets...I showed them bitches who was bosssss

We have a room in our house that always had what looked like an ant trail since they went in and out of just this one crack. Every year at the start of march. Well two years ago that room was gutted and basically redone entirely, stripped down to the framing. Next fucking winter the ants where walking now on the outside wall in the near same spot. wtf....lol. Sprays have never done anything. The buggers just walk around tell the spray fades away.
I feel you, I've got a war going on with myself. These Cambodian ants aren't quite as bad as fire ants, but they've still got a rough bite and there are a lot of them. I can't keep any food in the house. I've just got to buy enough to prepare at a time. They've also got a bizarre fascination with my coffee maker no matter how clean I make it. I'm drinking ant coffee every morning.
I have problems with those little ants too and I use Terro ant traps and they are the only thing that works for me. Also it is nice because you don't have to use poison or spray anything. Much healthier.
YOU HAVEN'T VACUUMED For 2 Months.....??? :- Note To GLEN....Open Diary And Cancel "Coffee Evening" Next Friday With T.M.S... Cheers Glen.
hahaha, alright I deserved that, I definitely worded it to make it seem like that. I actually vacuum almost every day specifically because of these little fuckers. Welp, all along the wall is now coated in probably dangerous levels of poison. Fuck I don't want to wash those dishes though, sink is overflowing yo.
I Get Them From Time To Time, And What I Do, I Follow The Trail Back To Where They Enter The House, And Starting From Outside I Spray The Trail With Surface Spray. Seems To Work Well Untill The Little Buggers Send Out A Scout With A G.P.S To Map A New Trail.... Cheers Glen.
You Don't Have To, Just Boil The Kettle And Pour Boiling Over Them, Then Let The Dishes "Air Dry", Trust Me It Works, Iv'e Done It Many Times..:2thumbsup: Cheers Glen.
Yes OUTSIDE, My Ants Usually Enter The House Up A Water Line Or One Of The Many Electrical And Coaxial Cables Entering The House.... Find Where Their Highway Is, Then "Blow It Up".... Cheers Glen.
hahah this dude at work took a shit fit cause there were ants in the sugar and he put it in his coffee. I know we'll never see him on Fear Factor...
I had 'em pretty bad once and when I found out where they were entering, I put a semi-circle of cayenne pepper about 1/4 inch thick at the entrance point and I never saw any again. Might be worth a try.
Just reminded me of the song we used to sing as kids The ants go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah The ants go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah The ants go marching one by one, The little one stops to suck his thumb And they all go marching down to the ground To get out of the rain, BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! The ants go marching two by two, hurrah, hurrah …… Hotwater
