I swear to god, ants are going to be the death of me. They are EVERYWHERE in my parents house. EVERYWHERE I TELL YOU!
Doesn't matter if there is food, water, etc. They were crawling all over my school books this morning. All over the bathroom so when you sit on the can or take a shower those little fuckers crawl on your feet. I woke UP this morning because two were crawling on my arm. They started crawling on my sculpture project as well that I have to turn in tomorrow. There are tons crawling all over my computer desk. I got in to work this morning and some got away inside my purse so I found one crawling on the desk at work.
DEATH TO ANTS :mad:

we have lot's of ants in our house too. those little buggers do become annoying after a while
we used to get these giant ones outside in the back yard, those things were kind of freaky because they were so much bigger

yeah, at least the big ones haven't been in the house.
Still, they are driving me nuts.
I suppose it's better than my boyfriends house though. He has spiders everywhere. I think over the weekend I encoutered about 6-7 spiders. And one random bug.
*shudder* :( my life has far too many insects in it.

I get these tiny little nearly invisible/transparent ants in the kitchen.
Then in the spring, I get tiny little black ants. They sometimes pinch.
In the spring and summer, I sometimes get the big, black ants.
They'll defend themselves if they see you coming in for the kill.
They crunch. Those are carpenter ants.

I once screamed like a six year old girl when I saw a group of the giant ones when I got the shower one time. That was maybe two months ago.

I noticed ants all along the edge of our driveway the other day. I saw our neighbour going mad with the ant powder last week so her house looks like it's been attacked by a bottle of talcum powder. So the ants have now hauled ass onto our patch.
I was watching them the other day - it was quite fascinating.
I must have looked an idiot - crouching down staring at some bricks.

I just had a horrible infestation of ants at my house. They seemed to go away when I switched from the swamp cooler to the regular A/C. Maybe they like humidity?

People who spray like that--wow. Earlier in the season, I saw a guy with one of those old metallic spray pumper cans that people used to use for insecticide. He was spraying his entire hillside and he was doing it on a windy day. At least he had protective gear on his face.

I dont know I think they do in baton rouge all they have is them huge megaton ants so maybe thats true, I hate them bastards and given that where we live the houses are all built on rocks and dirt, only fitting that ants would inhabit that earth. I keep tellin my people to call the ant man or whatever they call em and kill them suckaz but instead they get them ants traps, worked for like 3months now they back, must be a new colony just hatched or something I've never seen so many damn ants in my life, thing that sucks they just there, aint like there no food on the ground or anything they just coming in shit/.

I think ants are pretty cool. I find where they are coming into the house and leave them food there so they don't attack the Velveta because thats my block of cheese Mr. Ant.

I tried that and havent found shit, I really do think they just made a home inside the walls and just chill there untill its time to attack, I cant find where they coming from anywhere other then where they group together inside the house

I have the A/C on in my house. Doesn't help.
There was food left out accidently. They attacked that, but they kept attacking other random shit too.
I don't even want to go home because I know when I get there, there will be ants on everything and I just do not want to deal with it >:/

Set up a small ant resturant in your kitchen with limited seating so that they have to wait in line for a long time and get bored and finally leave the house.

at least ants serve a purpose I guess in the grand scheme of the world, better them then mosqiutoes which serve NO PURPOSE other then disease and death, seriosuly what benifit do they have for the world? But ants still need to stay outside and shit, come in your home acting like they own the place, all in your food on your couch like a damn uncle you havent seen in years.

haha :D
I think I may buy those poison hotels or whatever they are called and set em up around the house.
My room smells like someone sprayed 4 cans of Raid (my Mom got to it since I was gone on the weekend at the bfs). I had to sleep on the couch last night so I can breathe some fresh air. And I woke up with ants surrounding me. Bitches :mad:

I remember watching this Bruce Campbell movie on Sci Fi with these giant ant-looking things forcing humans to be slaves. I think it was Alien Apocalypse.

i love that chinese chalk. we use that at work. it's good stuff. that and any essential oil spray usually takes care of them. but it's rough in the summer months. it's just going to get worse next month. my mom gets them sooo bad at her house. the worst is around the POOL! we'll go swimming and such and the water splashed around brings them out. they come by the hundreds carrying their eggs over their heads. it's kind of neat to watch. then we do cannonballs and drown them.

hmmm I will look in to that.
They attacked my water bottles, the little bastards. I drown them while in the shower. I cup my hands together to gather lots of water, then say "WATER BOMB!!!!" and drop the water right on top of em.
I used to pretend I was a plane and had bombs (which were just really large rocks) and dropped it on their trails that were headed in to the house.

come on, you still pretend that. admit it. :D

ok yeah, I do. I also make the little 'dropping bomb & crash/explosion' sound while throwing the rocks on them too :o

Every thread has to have some perverted comment eventually. eh? >:|
ever see the fire ants in Florida? seriously they are bigger than my dog. :(
Never seen em. I'd cry. I hear about those bugs in Florida. I would never be able to handle them.

You should get one of those traps with the see-through windows that allows you to watch the ant be tortured by having his legs ripped off and beaten over his head, and poison-drenched cotton balls shoved into every oriface, while a delicious piece of food is dangling right out of reach. Sure, none of this will actually kill the ants, but it's way cool. (y)
Everyone has ants sometime in their lives. Houses are big and have cracks and eventually they'll find a way. One of my guy friends was incredibly freaked out once when there were ants along the kitchen sink, and I was like...um, yeah, apparently everyone but you gets them. :confused:

at my old house we use to get these gigantic bumble bees that would dig into the wood of the shed and live there. they would defend the whole shed from anything. if you threw a rock over it, five or six of them would chase the rock down. they'd even chase birds and shit. i would spend hours back there swatting them with tennis rackets. that was some fun shit.
