Ants in Bangkok

In our BKK home where the kitchen table legs rest protected in cups of apparently benign fine china ... well, all is not what the eye thinks it sees. For in all four bowls there is an outer citadel and an inner citadel, each of a most ingenious design. Cleverly constructed with these twin walls...the outer barrier allows the ant to reach its upper edge and survey the dangerous mixture of lye and essence of pepper-oil that separates him ... on his exterior perch ... from the (next) inner one. Should he attempt the swim (and survive) this second wall of draconian composition should be his end. Tiny Ricin laced barbs hurled by nano-sized catapults will almost certainly staple him into the gooey acid based jell from which this penultimate fortress was built. But, for added security, the insulation between this interior death wall and the table leg contains the ultimate 'gate': Strontium 90 mixed with spent Cobalt casings from discarded X-ray machines.

Tell me more...

Should do.

I don't have an x-ray machine, so I just use Raid ant spray.

to keep your table free of ants...... just keep your food on the floor.

I keep my ants in my pants.

I hate people who are anti-ant

Buy an Ant-Eater ?

90% sugar ground up with 10% borax. Apply liberally to anywhere ants wander. Feel guilty about the slaughter later...

Boric acid (used for eye wash) can also be mixed with sugar and water for the same results. It is readily available at any pharmacy and won't hurt larger pets like dogs and cats.

Important fact: Don't remove the dead ants. The living ants will carry the bodies back to the nest where they will eat them and get the same dose of poison as their lately departed brothers. Recycling at its best!! Ants are cannibals.

top cop spray, spray all cracks, door/window frames, lasts about 2 weeks.
