It's that time of year again and my house is OVER-RUN by fucking ants. Disgusting. I just found a trail and sprayed the daylights out of it. It was pretty satisfying watching them die. Except I got so overzealous that I sprayed several baby toys. Then I threw them out. Now the fumes are overpowering me. I can only hold my breath for about a sentence and then I have to stop typing so I can breathe into my elbow pit. This sucks. I paid for professionals last spring, thinking that would help. But it's just as bad this year as it was last year. You can kill a few ants. But you can never really get rid of them. They just send out more. Wiley little fuckers.

Actually, only queen ants fuck, and then only once (though with multiple partners). So technically, your house is overrun by non-fucking ants.
No wonder they're so hyper-focused and driven towards their goal.
if i were you... i will track one of the ants back to the nest... mark it's location, go to the gas station... buy a few gallons of gasoline... go back to the ant nest this time with a shovel, gas and matches... and just go SS on the little fucks! but since you are... well ermm... white... i'm guessing you will go with a more green solution... like bringing an ant eater from wherever the fuck anteaters are from... and then wait for nature to take it's course...
If I could find the nest and set those
i'm pretty sure that they sell some poison that you just spread around the little fucks and when they take it back home they die a slow horrible death... i'm not sure that is very green tho...
I don't give a fuck about green. Only that it doesn't kill my children. I've had the poison you're describing liberally applied every 3-4 months since last spring. I'm telling you, Alfonso. You cannot get rid of ants.
Give each of your children their own Dust Devils. Make it game to vacuum themselves and the floor around them when they eat. Once the ants can't find crumbs they'll leave on their own. Also, seal pantry stuff in tins or jars, or stick them in the fridge if you have room.
HAHAHAHHAHA.... back on DR somebody told me the same thing... i didnt spread poison tho... i did the gasoline thing... it worked like a charm... and i got to feel like a genocidal psycho... it was cool =)

Or so i hear.
