My house invaded earlier this year in a surprise move that has resulted in a massive list of casualties. So far, all of the casualties have been on the side of the enemy, but they are casualties none the less. These sneaky interlopers can be found crawling out from under baseboards, switch plates, and doors. They seem to have an unlimited supply of troops...as soon as one dies, five more take its place on the front lines... I may be fighting a losing battle.
Blast those ants!! How many of you have ever been under a full fledged war over the ownership of your property? I tried to play nice at first...spraying or wiping up any strays that I saw running across the counter tops. But now, its time for desperate measures. I am tired of being constantly on the defensive. So I have devised a new plan of battle that will go into effect as of the posting of this blog.
I am going to strike at them where they live! No more cowering behind my defenses. I am going out into the field to face this menace head on! My plan is to deploy "Ant Hotel" style poison traps around the areas that have already been penetrated by their scouts. I will then commence massive air "Raid"s (pardon the pun) on their villiages and supply lines using chemical warfare in the form of aerosol insecticide. Finally, I will beef up my defenses around the perimeter by utilizing granular poison at the base of my house.
Make no mistake...it is still MY house.
In order to document my ultimate victory, I will be posting a "Blogumentary" of my campaign, through which I will keep you all apprised of the battle, including graphic photographic images of the battlefield.
If any of you have tips and strategies that may help me in my conquest, please let me know.
