Little Anty Things

I´m being plagued by these little bugs which are no bigger than a pin head. They run around in columns just like ants but are too small to see their legs.

I´ve gutted my kitchen today in the hope of killing off the little blighters but they are still about. Horrid things!!

They probably wouldn't even want to live in MY kitchen, it is disgusting at the moment!

Mine is spotless now..........apart from three thousand little folk.

I think I need to get out more as they are getting to me. I watched a little army walk up the wall earlier and it just disappeared. One good thing, at least they aren´t cockies.

Re: Little Anty Things

When I was in the merchant Navy cockroaches were always to be found hovering around the various drinking fountains on the ship. Just about everyone I sailed with called them “Jaspers” I don’t know why. I still call them that today…any ideas why they called them that, I never asked at the time :D

Granny June is in Spain so a trip to Wilkinsons could be very expensive(unless they have outlets in Spain):p

We've got little any things at church too. I hate the beggars. They seem to be immune to Nippon because they are just ignoring it. :(

Re: Little Anty Things

I have loads of ants in the garden on my path, I love watching them, very interesting little things they are!:D

if ya want ant killer just go to homebargin, they have some in there for 99p:)

it works with the ant taking the stuff(whatever it is) to the queen, the queen eats it, dies and the colony is doomed:D

Re: Little Anty Things

I posted this recipe in another thread about insects.

Oil of Citronella = parts Formalin.
Paint along edges and in corners.

Do NOT let dogs inhale, the shock of a quick intake of formalin can kill dog.

Retlaw.
