home invasion

The ants are back. No matter how much rain we get they will not drown. They will not go away. I have discovered they do not like chalk. I am now surrounded by puprle chalk lines hoping to keep them out. We will see if they evolve.

I did not know ants won't drown. Good luck in controlling your ant invasion. When the rainy season ends they will be easier to get rid of. But lets think positive, Carol. Now is a good time to develop your artistic ability. Chalk could be your medium.

Where are the ants? In your house? We had ants coming in through one of our electrical outlets in the kitchen a few weeks ago. Some of them got fried when I turned on the radio plugged in there.

I sprayed some ant spray directly into the outlet (stupid, I know), and they haven't been back since.

Next time, I'll try chalk. Purple chalk. Good luck!!

The ants are in the house. They can get in just about every. One night they scared me half to death. I went in the bathroon and they had swarmed the bathroom window. It was like out of a horror movie. I didn't like doing it but they got the ant killer. I know it's toxic so we stayed out of the bathroom for the rest of the night. Darned ants, can't they find something outside to do?

Go outside and see if you can find their ant hill and spray it.
