The March of the Ants

[justjenn76]

We're being invaded. No, seriously. Jim came home between jobs this afternoon to change his clothes and discovered our kitchen floor was awash in a sea of little, black ants. They were swarming from a crack in the seal along the bottom of the kitchen door all the way across the floor to the pantry where they had discovered a few tiny crumbs of food

One of my gardening books claims that powdered cinnamon is an effective ant deterrent. Sprinkle it in a line cordoning off the areas you don't want them, and they'll stay out. So it claims, anyway, I've never tested it. Seems like it might be worth trying, anyway.

And don't feel bad about the damn ants. They'd have come in regardless, because of the time of year and the way the weather has been. They might have been less enthusiastic if you'd washed that juice glass, but they'd still have been there.
