fuck them.

no food anywhere but they're just roaming the floor. Stepped on like 3 just walking in the kitchen to make a sandwich, makes me want to just wash my feet after I go into the kitchen. Hopefully my borax poison works and kills them by tomorrow morning.

Terro/boric acid works amazingly well as long as they aren't carpenter ants. It's like smallpox blankets for ants.

They also sometimes experience the zombie apocalypse, kinda like in The Last of Us.

Yeah I'm using borax (which has the negative ion in boric acid and is basically the same poison) mixed with sugar. I just hope my ratio was good enough so that they'll eat it and die after taking it back to the hive.

Dude. My dorm room last year got invaded by ants.

We executed an ant genocide in our room with boric acid around the perimeter. Shit works. Best of luck in your mass killings at the heart.

HOWEVER: I must note that I saw this video of ants from above, with dots labeling their "job" in the colony. This was then timelapsed, and the tracks were followed. Was incredibly interesting, and when you really think about it, we're all executing our jobs in the process that runs our human colony. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find the video again.
In any case, makes me feel bad about killing them.

Heh, I don't mind ants, but I hate spiders. Funny story, my freshman year in the OU dorms, there was a lot of ants in the room when I moved in. So I went out and bought some bug bombs and set one off. About 10 seconds later, the alarm went off and had to explain to the cops/firefighters/resident why I thought it was a good idea.

So far it seems successful. A lot less ants after the initial swarm.

so the alarm went off because of a bug bomb? what is it like a smokebomb rofl how did it detect it.

edit: in retrospect you probably should have just got some of those ant trap houses or w/e they are

One time an ant was crawling up my leg when I was in a tf2 match, it was awkward.
