Not Just Ants....FLYING Ants!!!
Yeah, so we had an infestation of flying ants in our windows today. I was home all day working like usual. I saw two ants crawling in the kitchen this morning. I thought...OK no problem. I've been seeing an average of 2 ants a day since Seymen declared WAR on the carpenter ants on Sunday.
Well my dad stopped by after I finished working tonight, to see the house and the progress we've made since he left after Christmas. They came inside and sat down on the couches. My dad looked up at the ceiling windows and goes...um...Beth...you have flying ants. I look up and there was a HUGE swarm of flying ants. Like probably over 100 aunts all flying around.
Thank god my dad was there, otherwise, had I noticed that myself I would have FREAKEDDDDD out!!! So we called Seymen and he came home from work and he and my dad went to work exterminating the ants. They are now hopefully all dead...We have seen a few stragglers here and there, but I think they are dead. OMG so disgusting. So much for the exterminator people. They never called us back. I hate BUGS! Poor Seymen is wandering around the house with the vacume cleaner sucking up the little suckers everywhere.
He just went outside to spray some more :-) He's so brave! I'm thanking my lucky stars that while he's gone serving in the army, I'm going to be out in California...because I don't know if I would be brave enough to deal with this house stuff alone.

Um, that is one of the nastiest things I have ever heard. If I saw that, I would have freaked out too... bugs just creep me out. Ew.
