Comments on: War of The Ants http://kitta.net/2007/04/30/war-of-the-ants/ Don't feed or spank the monkey Thu, 29 Jul 2010 15:31:40 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: Ed http://kitta.net/2007/04/30/war-of-the-ants/#comment-161531 Ed Wed, 23 May 2007 08:07:42 +0000 http://kitta.net/2007/04/30/war-of-the-ants/#comment-161531 Lola, The ants may have come in through the plumbing. I'm out in the middle of no-where and my only source of water is a well. A few years ago I noticed "things" floating in a glass of water I'd just filled at the kitchen sink. Upon close inspection I realized they were little ant bodies. I went outside to inspect the well and found a thriving ant colony under the well cover. Apparently the ants found it very convenient to simply toss the dead bodies down the well. I've since installed a filter in the fresh water line. Lola,

Or maybe they just have very tiny brains that cannot grasp the concept of drowning.

I was making cups of tea and i noticed a little black spec in the cup, i fished it out and carried on stiring, more black specs appeared; you can see where this is going cant you? I fished another out and examined it only to find they were very dead ants. My first thought was that they must have gotten into the teabag tin, but then I opened the kettle. There must have been hundreds of the buggers floating in the water or clinging to the sides. To this day I don't know what possessed them to all crawl into the kettle, but I couldn't bring myself to drink tea for three or four months after that.

Unfortunately we had little black ants trying it on a few years back. I hate the little buggers. I tried figuring out where they were coming in and covering up the entry with talcum powder (all I had then). Seemed to work eventually. Then a year or so later we discovered termites in the side fence - coincidence or revenge? I don't know. All I can say is the pest control people charge like wounded bulls. Go hard I say - go rambo first blood on their little feelers! This had me rofl-ing!

I hear some queens can be reasonable. Maybe offer her some shoes, three pair of course, because really, what could she do with only two shoes? Perhaps an appeal to the royal court would help.
