Ants

Last night as Shawn was enjoying a cigarette at the end of the evening, long after dark, he noticed a movement on the sidewalk and asphalt of the driveway. He called me out, and we peered together at the small bodies moving as a unit.

Fortunately, we had a good household bug killer. The ants were large… for ants; and while we had no trouble killing them, I was glad they weren’t spiders, or ticks, or something worse.

The lesson here is always have a good supply of pest killer because when you least expect it, some vile little colony of pests will amass right outside your door.

    Did you know that hair spray will kill any bugs and insects (we have wasps) just as well as bug killers, without the terrible smell?
