I was just sitting on my front porch and I noticed a bunch of tiny ants on the bottom step. Some were traveling in one direction and vice versa. The ones traveling southward appeared to be carrying something, small white particles. I then refreshened my drink and got a can of Brake Clean and sprayed in the cracks at both ends and watched all the ants in the middle fall out of line in a panic, then I picked them off one by one. It really was more interesting than the story sounds.

Did you use it as a flame thrower???

Try them between Tropic of Cancer and the Equator

 

I don't know what those little brown bastard ants are in NJ but they seem to like sliding glass doors and biting me. But I'd take them in a heartbeat over the red ant hills down south. Or, past down south, leaf cutters, .50 cal ants, ant tree, ack! *shivers*

Try Terro liquid ant baits if your getting them in your house. Just be careful if you have cats or dogs.

WORD, Mipa!

 

I grew up in FL. Fire ants are the worst. .50 Cal ants were bad, but too rare...along with tree ants (which, along with .50 cals, are actually wasps that sting, rather than bite.)

 

E80: Nice kill!

When i find ants i feed them to my turtles...mwahahaha! Why let free food go to waste?

Just don't try to feed fire ants to your turtle. It can turn out not so good for the turtle. :dead_turtle_icon.gif:

Appreciate the advice, thanks. I don't have that problem where I live now, but I'll file it for future use.
