The ants are marching in. I always wish I could prevent it, but each spring and summer, the little tiny ants invade (my mom calls them "sweet ants", but there's nothing sweet about them infesting our kitchen).
This morning Tony pried himself out of bed first and ventured down for some water. My enjoyable minutes of being a bed-bug were cut short by the sound of the vacuum. He had the attachments out and was going after the ants. I decided to join in on the attack with some 409. Folks, it's scary how quickly 409 kills ants. Makes you wonder if you should be spraying it on something your food could touch.
The ants feasted well overnight as two of the four traps we set out yesterday were licked clean. We set out more traps before we left for work. Hopefully they will decide that our home is not a hospitable environment and march themselves out.

Well, I'm glad to hear that we are not the only ones who deal with ants! They're soooo sneaky! I will have to try 409 next time.
Good observation about the 409... I spray that stuff all over our countertops... yikes! BUT, our home IS ant-free :)
