you think a woman wouldn't kill ants? :confused:
Where would she find the time between being pregnant and cooking meals for her husband? :confused:
if that isn't flamebait i don't know what is.
I thought the humorous intent was obvious, but apparently it's not.

For the record, I don't really believe women spend all their time being pregnant or cooking...

That stuff takes up, like, what, 80% of their time? 90% tops? There's plenty left over for crocheting sweaters and buying groceries.
:roll:

you're gay, right? we all know you don't like women.

WTF? You seriously object to killing ants that are entering your home? Or even "confusing" them (making them lose their scent trail).

I guess you just live with them and every other piece of vermin that comes your way.

Watch where they come in. Put a little bit of sealant there. Repeat.

Then line the area with salt when you are done. Ants won't cross a salt line.

But what of the poor ants that are trapped inside?? It's a sad lonely death for a lost ant :(

I can't think of anything a woman wouldn't kill, that's why I have decided to stay away from them, the only interaction I have with woman is through AT, and in my Junk mail (Apparently there is this girl Sara and her sisters who want me to click here and there, I click and click and it turned out to be a trick, whoever sends me those emails is such a dck), anything on a closer level might result fatal :Q

In defense of the ants, I think they are looking for water. It has been exceedingly hot in Melbourne over the past week or so.

You may actually have a point there. If you look close enough, some of them may be carrying boogie boards!

You know what you need to do?

Kill yourself. Obviously the ants were there before you and deserve to live more than a human.

sugar pile in front yard. seal off wherever they're getting in. I'm the same way, i always pick up em and throw em outside

I don't like to move them, because I worry they might lose their trail and won't be able to find their way back to the nest. It's a sad lonely death for a lost ant. :(

if you can find where they are comin from, put em outside near that area, they're very sensative to finding those trails

I just meant it in a general sense since a woman is much more likely to either be afraid of dealing with them, or show unnecessary compassion for something stupid like this.
