Ants!

Darn it! I have been fighting big black ants in my kitchen for a while now. And it's not getting better.Upon investigation, it turns out they are probably carpenter ants. To see one, go to http://www.uky.edu/Ag/Entomology/entfacts/struct/ef603.htm Don't if bugs freak you out! To fix this problem, I can't use regular ant bait. They don't like it. Naturally I have to pay someone. $395 + tax! That hurts!

Oh no!! I hate having ants in the house. Never had to deal with the carpenter variety. Good luck with them.

Thank you for your condolences about my Cali. I left on vacation almost immediately afterwards, which helped keep my mind diverted. Not having her here to greet me upon yesterday's return was hard, though. Caring friends and e-buddies have been a big help.
