Creepy crawlies
May. 4th, 2006 05:15 pmThe ants are back.
Last summer we had a major ant invasion, and it looks like this summer will be no different; I've seen six so far today. (Well, possibly five, as one got away and may have reappeared elsewhere.) Too many, anyway, and all of the same large, black variety. Roommate laughs at me when I call them an invasion, but she's not the one who woke up to ants crawling on her in bed last year. I'm going to have to talk to her about leaving food out and dishes undone. I haven't been terribly good about it myself over the past few weeks, but she's consistently worse. She's good with other things, but not very much not down with cleaning.
Anyone know of a good ant deterrent?
