Ants!!!

Published on September 3, 2006 By MasonM In Misc

Geez, I thought I was losing it. I kept feeling like things were crawling on my skin, you know, that creepy crawly feeling you can get sometimes. I was sitting here working on updating my systems and kept getting that feeling. It was really starting to bug me. I haven't had that many beers

I kept brushing at my legs and trying to ignore it. Finally I noticed a sugar ant crawling on my leg. I got to looking and sure enough there were several of the little buggers crawling on the carpet. I can't imagine why they are here. the place is clean, there's nothing for them to be attracted to, and it really seems like a real waste of their time to even be here at all.

I delved into that deep, dark, violent part of my nature and slaughtered every one I could see. It's been a few minutes and I haven't seen any more, but if I know ants their brethren are lurking around here someplace.

I don't like spraying poisons in my home so I guess tomorrow I'll pick up some of those ant baits and scatter them around the place. I really hate tresspassers, but I suppose it's better than finding roaches or termites or something. I think the next time I am on my way home I'll schedule for an exterminator to come by while I'm home. Or schedule for them to tent the place while I'm not home.

Damn bugs.

I hate for anything that belongs outside to crawl into my house.

I nuke it with whatever bug killer I have handy. That is probably why I have this persistent twitch.

Oh I don't think you're a...oh you wrote twitch. Never mind.
