yes, and they can be really annoying and re-appearing several times.

You never manage to get rid off them all ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ฉ

NSAnts, itโ€™s all part of the plan. !

Ants are fucking awesome ๐Ÿ˜Ž

As a kid a breed few of them ๐Ÿฅน

Thereโ€™s a native tribe in Brazil that has this coming of age ritual involving being stung by hundreds of bullet ants ๐Ÿœ

Apparently the sting is so painful itโ€™s equivalent to being shot (hence the name)

Screw that!!!!!

is this a new token ?

Apparently thereโ€™s already an โ€œANTcoinโ€. ๐Ÿ™„

Id believe it

Disgracefulโ€ฆ

If they canโ€™t keep it in their pants, they should at least keep it to their bedrooms

hahhahaha I had that thought too! I was like....wow...how pervy!๐Ÿ˜†

That's how you get baby ants

Actually they arenโ€™t. One of the great things about Tramping in New Zealand, especially c/f the same hobby in Aus

That's exactly what they think about humans. ๐Ÿ™ƒ๐Ÿ™ƒ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Then there will even be more of them all over the place! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜†

Ants, are fucking everywhere or

Ants are fucking, everywhere

Small and mobile has its advantages.

Big and immobile does to. Trees dominate our world.

Sharks are older than trees.

Like an ant orgy? Arenโ€™t those usually sausage fests?

Yes! EO Wilson has written some excellent books about their societies. Ants outnumber humans at least 2.5 million to 1 :)

Yeesh, they should get a room!

if this is to be taken at face value, let me give you a life hack, there is a tree that dedicates the production of its bark to absolutely turn all ants away - needed for the survival of the tree. We use the bark of that tree to make cinammon.

SOOoooo, if you want nature's way of keeping ants out, just pour cinammon on their trails. They will hate you for it and you can begin winning the war!

Thanks! Today I learned!

That's all we can do, one fact at a time! ๐Ÿ’ช

Thanks for the zap, this makes giving out info even MORE fun! :D

haha i suddenly became paranoid i was giving you a wive's tale and not a "fact" (ya know, verify, don't trust...). Google's answer made me chuckle:

Cinnamon is often regarded as an effective DIY ant control option. It is believed that cinnamon acts as a natural repellent because ants cannot stand the smell. Also, if an ant inhales cinnamon, it can suffocate and die. Ground cinnamon can be sprinkled on an ant's pathway for them to inhale.

SUFFOCATE AND DIE, ANTS!!

Odd, it didn't mention the bark-of-tree thing. Guess that's "in the details"...

and now mythbusters somewhat raining on my parade...

ok - i now fell down the ant rabbit-hole, or is that just an "ant-hill"?

Sooo many different anecdotal ways of killing ants, but indeed people seemed to be having success with cinnamon over and over again.

I would go for it! Keep us informed - for science's sake :D

Damn flies tho
