Seasonal invasion of ants has started [View all]

Grease ants. I saw some on the floor yesterday and swept them up. More on the counter and sink this morning, so I grimly washed the dishes, decluttered, and wiped the clear areas with pure ammonia.

Not quite Leiningen Versus the Ants. I tried to put up with them, but last year they breached the stove, and that is too much.
