Mom, can I eat these new ants?
Thank you for asking, Pia. The answer is Absolutely Not!
The ants returned over the weekend and Mom took that as a personal smack in the face, given she had de-ant-ed this house just a month ago. This batch, unfortunately, seemed to come in with the latest pet food shipment, which had sat outside on the porch after delivery for about an hour or in ant-time, all the time in the world to stake a claim.
We didn’t empty the delivery box until the following day and by then, the ants had already made themselves at home in multiple rooms. Why they hadn’t made popcorn and turned on the TV is baffling, since they found in so many places to wander about. But Mom used her trusty systematic method of rounding them up to a central location and then, lets them have it by way of juicy, fresh ant bait. Bye, bye ants. Have a lovely trip elsewhere!
