Ants in the Milk

With the rains, ants moved inside for the summer.  We hope they'll go back out soon.
If you get our email updates you'll know already some of what we've learned.

The very easiest way to get ants out of your milk powder is to make milk and then fish the ants out afterward, because they float.

A few other things we've learned:

1. Ants are everywhere

2. New ant nests can be anywhere: any drawer, any box, behind a book, under a kitchen towel, even inside the kettle (though THAT didn't last long...location, location,location)

3. If there's even a micron of food on the floor, there will be a troop of ants to retrieve it ("How many ants does it take to pick up a bread crumb?")

4. Ants can pass through solid walls.

5."Doc, I constantly feel like there are ants crawling on me...oh, wait...."

6. All ants bite (here)

7. Don't bite ants (anywhere)

8. Don't ask why the rice is crunchy.

9. And finally... Ants appear to like having pool parties - in our water filter.
