Um...ant traps? We got them once or twice and I got some ant traps and popped them into my cabinets and they stopped coming. Seal everything in your cabinets too, like cereal and stuff like that that normally gets left open in a box. I highly recommend investing in some airtight plastic containers. Try to find out where they are coming in to your apartment and place a trap by that too. The way most ant traps work is they have (obviously) poison in them and then ants end up bringing the crap back to the colony where they share it and eat it as food and BLAM good by colony. Or you could sit hovering over your food with a hammer and smash them every time you see them. Best of luck!

Perhaps the problem is not that ants are there, but that you aren't a Jain.
*grins* Sorry about that, but I couldn't help but think of this comic, which has always disturbed me somewhat, so I thought I should let it go bother someone else. Don't feel obliged to read it. *half grin*

I agree with Mandy though; with the possible exception of cutting off all their food sources and waiting it out, completely freezing your apartment somehow, or getting a pet anteater, you'd have to use something toxic. Can't say I didn't try to get around it though.

I really liked that comic - you are the woman to go to for online comics, aren't you?

well, the ants disappeared... but they could just be hiding in my dirty laundry. *sigh*

Well, you can't say 'complete waste of time' without thinking 'Janalee.' *half smile* At least I find it enjoyable anyway.
And I'm glad you liked it. ^^ Part of me enjoyed it, and part of me will forever be disturbed that the last portion of the comic reminded me of the final scene of The Grapes of Wrath. You have to admit though, they both kind of stay with you.
Someday, we'll have to make statues of ourselves, composed of all the little pieces of literature, music, and everything else that just keep showing up in our lives.

And if the ants want to just march away, all the better. And if they want to march back, then you can worry about it.

My house is currently infested. It sucks.

Let's hang out, so I can get out of my house. (Really it isn't that bad, but let's still hang out)

YES!!! The ants can't stop us from living our lives. They don't own us! When and where?
