The trouble with Summer and the warm weather is definately the insects and the "Ants" are always there and they could be anywhere.

I saw one on the carpet the other day.

They just get in and there is no stopping them.

I think that everybody has a problem with them and has some Ant killer handy and is ready to fight the war with the Ant population.

It is bigger than you think!

This Summer is meant to be real hot! So expect an invasion real soon.

If you feel something crawling on you, it is probably an Ant.

One can be on your hair and crawl into your ear hole and you won't be able to get it out.

It might find it's way down your nostril.

Here's a few:-

It's a change, something different and a topic which may scare some and amaze others.

Dare to be different!

Summer is coming and I hate all these insects, but we forget!

I know Markus,

The "Day of the flying Ants" :sad::sad:

Only they know the actual day, when they all decide to fly.

Luckily, they only do it for one day only. I have had them in my hair and on my clothes.

But Ant's are a REAL problem for all of us.

What about, "fire-ants?"

I don't mind ants. We don't have a huge ant problem in my area. But, we do have these big brown flies. I'm not sure what they are called, but they give a nasty bite!

No, I most certainly do not. Nor have I ever. Since you seem to know all about it, I'm thinking it's something you might have had to deal with in the past. Pesky things.. :wink:

I went to the insect-house in London zoo, (Regents Park) and there was a massive Ant farm in there, Billions of the things.

But I get scared when I see a load of them

Would you close your eyes and put your hand in an Ant's nest and let them crawl up your sleeve, Andybigbro?

I won't laugh!

I used to poke Ant's nests with a stick and when they came running out

I would pour boiling water from a kettle and watch them all quickly die.

I have killed loads and hate them completely.

I used a magnifying glass on tar on an incredibly hot day and watched it go really soft and dig at it.

This was at school, destroying the playground.

Regular male worker ants aren't the ones that bother me. It's the ones that fly that scare the piss outta me. :sad::yuk:

I agree, Chilltown.

I hate the ones that fly and they seem to do it all in one particular day, "The day of the flying ants"

But for now, we have placed a lot of ant stuff down and we have it under control, no Ant's coming in the house yet :puzzled:
