le ants

remember a couple of days ago, when i found a wee colony of ants and wiped them up with orange fantastik? well, that happened a few days later again. didn't think much of it, as each time they were all gone and this was two different places--well, today, they were in the first place, plus a long line across the bottom of the island cabinets, plus around and up all over the giant tupperware we keep dog food in, and in several other places as well. i used a bunch of orange fantastik again, and the mop, and then i found the ant-raid and used that, and went to the post office. came back and opened the window. that stuff reeks. am worried, though. will the raid keep them out? man, this morning... that was GROSS.

i don't know what kind of ants they are or if they don't respond to normal bait traps.. >> but you can try what my parents use, which is quite effective: little silver tab traps with bait, and the ants carry it back to the nest and mwahahah, poison them AAAALLL. it works for our house, anyway. maybe you could try?
