No Cash Alternative
Diva
I found one crawling over my newly cleaned washing last night, then spotted one crawling over the floor, so nags blitzed downstairs with ant spray when we went to bed. I woke this morning and haven’t seen a single ant yet. Sadly I did see a deceased big black beetle though. Apart from that, it’s too hot for me, my finger still hurts and I’m very mardy today.

Sunshine / Website (8.6.06 14:47) Oh i think that i am going to have to buy you some ant killer for your engagement prezzie.. Poor you. Its too hot for me too but it is freezing in my office as the AC is just too cold. Just cant win.!!! |

cucumber / Website (8.6.06 14:50) I had ants every year for 4 years in my last flat. My friend reminded me the other day that it drove me to the edge of sanity. Horrible little things. I used every chemical in the world to get rid of them, and probably just made myself sick with all the fumes. Eventually I cleaned every surface and area that I'd sprayed, and use this If you absolutely have to kill every motherf*cker in the room, accept no substitutes. You will win the war! |

reptar / Website (8.6.06 16:55) I don't really worry too much about ants. It's black widow spiders and king cobras that scare me most. Fortunately there aren't many in Gloucestershire.

cucumber (8.6.06 20:58) I once kept a redback spider as a pet for a few days. It's the australian equivalent of the black widow, with a natty little stripe on his back. In hindsight, it was a really dumb thing to do. PS I do like the design of this blog! You've moved in nicely. |

panda_eyed / Website (9.6.06 12:28) Oh poor Diva, still can't get rid of those ants huh? We have them too, but every year around March time, we squidge a line of ant powder around the front door (on the outside) and this seems to form a barrier that they can't get travel across. If you haven't done this already, perhaps try around all external doors? Pesky little things, ants x |

jia / Website (9.6.06 19:41) ooh panda...we do that too! |
|
moochy / Website (9.6.06 22:41) Ahhh ants drive me mad. There's loads of them in our kitchen. Dunno where they come from but I've stopped just kindly taking them outside and just squishing them. (shh I love animals really) |
