what color were these ants?.. sugar ants are smaller black ones…aslong as they not red or large they are just pests not really agro… use cinnamon at your door its like hot lava to ants… its like Gandalf you shall not pass to them will keep them out… but a quick clean up of your flour reserves would also help keep them away…
Good luck getting rid of the ants depending on where you live. I lived near the beach long ago and ants were everywhere. Just think of them as your little kitchen cleaning crew.
I think ants are contagious… today… I found bastarde ants in the kitchen… I cleaned it up mostly… but will cinnamon them tomm if they haven’t left… glad you got rid of yours…but you didn’t have to send them here…
I had a battle with the ants myself. They were moving in around my kitchen sink. I had to use insecticide, which I know is dangerous if ingested orally, but I wanted those ants to go away. I managed to get rid of them without poisoning myself.
When I had ants in my old apartment I used to scare them away and only kill the fastest ones. Eventually none of them would ever run away and then I would kill the whole lot.
When I was a kid I would torture ants a lot. I think it cursed me.
I used to have an ant farm they didn’t survive long. A 20 second burst of an radioactive isotope at 57% will destroy them within 8 quadriseconds. +55 (888) 888-888$
