when barely knows mylot at all during my first days and weeks in here and that was three months ago from now, i started a discussion about these annoying ants. so to say, this is my third article about these ants who wanted to share with me for three months also. everytime they climbed into my wall and cabinet, they will bring sand soil. i guess they will make a nest out from it.
so this morning, i cleaned and swept my room so to make it neat and clean. but this very morning too, i started the day sweeping and getting the sandy soil brought by these pests --- oops!
this very noon, as i have this appetite to watch workout video and tempted to dance. gosh, i was bitten by few of this red ants. so i just rubbed it off from my feet and i knew i squeezed them and leave them no breath (brutal). minute by minute, same thing happened and scratches my skin because of itchiness and felt the needle-like sting in it. because i was out of patience already, turn on the light, what i saw were red ants crawling into the walls again. maybe they were being disturbed by me as i move back and forth, sidewards and so on.
grrrrr... for three months in a row, always sweeping their messes on the floor and avoided them not to get hurt so that they will not bite me. but of course how can they understand the diplomacy i tried to established to have a mutual understanding so that they will move to another place and keep coming back in my room. am fed-up that was why, i sought their base and destroyed it. if still they cannot understandn sorry for them, i will really burn their nest.
ouch, my skin is still so itchy painful. grrrr.... with red ants...

hi there!
There must be something in your place that keeps them there. Sought the source, they will disappear once you get rid of the "thing".
For now, try not to disturb them. God bless!

i really hate when i see red ants inside of my room because they can harm us by biting us and create some itchiness in our body,especially red ants because they are the fighter one that when they clasp they will bite you and give you a heck itchiness.

you are right. ants are very annoying when they are inside of our premises. they are bothersome as well. ants will really bite you when it could stick or when it has a chance to get near you more in your skin. that is their nature because like us, they do not like intruders like we do. i am so glad as of now that i cannot find any trace of ants in my room for if so, gee, i will do my best to remove or to oust them in my place. they are not good to keep. thanks :)

You are not alone missjahn, I also experienced the same acouple of months ago, not with the red ants the black one also bringing soil. But now they're gone without doing anything. At first I really wanted to scratch them off being pissed with the mess they create from those soil with them. Sweeping them off and there they are again after a couple of hours. But then I just leave them alone and stop thinking about them anymore. After forgetting about them I didn't even notice how long have they been gone LOL.. But I'm glad they already left me and my room. One thing I remember about ants my uncle put plenty of salt on their house but the worst thing I remembered when I was just a kid someone in the family pour out freshly boiled water to an ant's house... poor little ants.

hi there...
i took pity on them but if not shooing them, they will live and transferred into my room. whoah! haha! it is okay with me if they will not be a bothersome little creatures but to think i cannot have a diplomat arrangement with them not to bite me and not to roam around, so the best way of getting rid away from them is to destroy their hives and put kerosene everytime they will climb again into the walls of my room.
haha... i cannot leave them like that well i guess, should try that strategy next time... thanks for joining in here...
