Oh GROSS!

Spring is on it’s way, and so are many of the insects…

here in DK, we have ANTS… and a lot of 'em!!

I just went to get a glass of water, when I turned on the lights in the kitchen…

I saw AT LEAST 50 ants crawling around the sink…

EW EW EW EW EW EW EW!!!

I hate ant season… mom is gonna phreak tomorrow… and then bring out the poison :bad:

get hot pepper and lay it down in little dishes around your kitchen area. We haven’t had any ants since we did that. Cheap and effective way to get them out.

hot pepper?

like chili?

yeah, like powdered or just crushed red (hot) pepper.

Perhaps the pepper scared away the small pieces of food left around because everyone knows the pepper is the bully vegetable. So there was no food for the ants, so they went elsewhere. So your theory is wrong Jubba, but still works :beam:

But do your research next time, you made yourself look like dummy! :stuck_out_tongue:

ugh, we get ****roachs here, it sucks, i hate them so much!

It worked for us at our old house. We put small dishes with hot crushed red pepper in them. After a week or so we had less ants and then after 2 weeks they were gone. We didn’t really have any serious problems with them after that.

We are guessing that they eat it and they don’t like the spicyness and they stay away. Best thing to do tho is to make sure that your house is crumb-free while you have the pepper down, or they will go for the crumbs and not eat the pepper. But if you have large amounts of this pepper available they will still take it and then they left…

C*ckroaches have feelings too! :stuck_out_tongue:

  • Soul :s:

For ****roaches, buy a gun. Or a bazooka… they don’t die!

You get Olympic size roaches there… just like Hawaii… plus they fly…

don’t get me started…

Rev

hahah! that sucks

I can imagine the roaches laughing at you when you spray them with RAID… lol!

hahaha, thats horrible! you have to put like rat traps out to catch those bad boys

time to call Orkin. Those guys rule!

Kind of inhumane too… like feeding a bird an ala-seltzer tablet… they explode due to gas build-up

ORKIN cost money… We are poor

phil, they really explode? thats nasty, then instead of having little roaches everywhere, you have little roach insides everywhere

I get ants too every spring. I hate it.

Spraying vinegar in any opening to your house (doorway bottom windows, etc) where they usually come in does a good job a lot.

Also rice. When ants eat rice it expands inside them and kills them. They bring it back to the colony for the colony to feed on, sometimes pretty effective, but not all the time.

people do that with rats? thats even worse.

kinda funny though, yet very disgusting…walking down the street and seeing assorted rat corpses and birds flying down to eat them.

**hojo-

sorry to hear about that…yuck-

I have heard that New Yorkers in Manhattan put out little bowls of coca cola and when the rats drink it, since they cannot burp or fart, they implode. Kinds neat hunh? :!:

pj :stuck_out_tongue: **

Yep, that is 100% true as well.

oh yuck…

exploding birds, roaches and whatnot… eeewwww… (said like homer S)
