Instead of killing them.... you could've just cleaned up your sh!t.. 😛

I dunno, I find it impossible to consider ants a pest.. but we don't have nasty ones that sting or anything around here, so..

Up until today, I'd been having some problems with ants in my place. Coming into the kitchen and finding them all over a soda can, stuff like that.

Well, today I Was watering some plants outside, and left and forgot the water was on. I came back and found tons of ants climbing up the side of the house trying to get away from the flood. I sprayed them with some ant killer and did a little more experimenting with the garden hose. I ended up lifting up a really old peice of plywood that's been decaying next to the fence for probably 5 years or longer, and found thier nest full of ant larvae and tunnels through the dirt I hit them with a ton of ant spray, gave them a couple minutes to die. And then flooded out the entire thing.

Ants that tried to escape the flood by going up the fence got hit with the spray.

Die motherfvckers! Stay the fvck out of my kitchen!

Hopefully that gets rid of them for a while.

White things are ant larvae. That is an area about 6 inches wide out of a total area that was about 5' by 18" that was swarming with them.


should have burned them after spraying them
 
i hate ants. In fact I just had one crawling on me a couple of minutes ago. I slapped that big boy and ate it.

yum

Indeed! We must witness the massacre for ourselves!

What kind if posion you hit them with? Raid Max is the ultimate for ant killing, IMO.

use boiling water

kerosene and a match works wonders too

And dirt burns if you soak it with kerosene or gasoline. That's how we got rid of the termites at my parents' house. Soaked the are with kerosene, lit it and stirred it with shovels. Took forever to burn off though. We didn't anticipate that part of it. The termites are gone though, and the grass has grown back in that spot. (There wasn't any before the "event").
 
I killed a bunch last night. I was out in the back yard and stepped in a swarm of Texas Fire Ants, the ones that look you in the eye as they bite you. I have about 20 bites on my foot now and they itch like crazy. So last night i went out and got the most deadly ant killer i could get, and gave them the whole bag. DIE MOTHER B!TCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
