It is summer; therefore, ants. Omfg, so many ants

I hate ants almost as much as I hate ticks.

I now live where neither really encroach on my life in any way.

I've never had any real encounters with ticks, thank goodness. Ants are probably number two on my hate list, because I have had experience with fleas, and they get the #1 spot.

Ants are horrible. I do not know if you will need this or if it would be helpful at all, but my grandmother used to put slices of cucumber out on window sills or anyplace she knew ants were getting in because apparently ants hate cucumber? Also, lemon juice, cinnamon or coffee.

I've never heard that cucumber works that way before - interesting! I've had pretty good luck in the past using cinnamon to block the cracks where they come in, but this year the bastards are excavating through it.
