Ant Adventure

Ah the joys of being a homeowner! We have had a few issues here and there since we moved in. But, none have been as nasty as this one. I came home today to an ANT infestation! Sick, gross, ewe. I know! Apparently there was an ant nest/mound/colony in the back yard. So, they managed to weave their way through the patio, back door, along the hardwood, around the bar, and up to the kitchen sink and wall. There were hundreds. It gave me the heebie jeebies. Keith was playing basketball with some other dental students- so I had to attack the situation on my own. I needed to take care of this before they made it to the pantry! I hopped in my car and headed to Fred's discount store... Marion's finest! I stocked up on ant elimination products (see photo). Bubba behind me at the checkout said, "you must mean business, little lady." Darn right, Bubba.















I ran in the door so fast and sprayed Raid everywhere. I hit every last one. I didn't think about how great it was going to smell in the kitchen. I felt so victorious as they lay there dead. Now, I've set up traps (I prefer to call them Ant Motels), and had the parameter of the house sprayed.

Problem solved.

That's all for now. Until the next adventure...
