Yesterday afternoon the FedEx man arrived with the ammunition I have been waiting for, the Terro has arrived.
The traps were immediately set out at various locations and they seem to be doing the job. I ran the traps last night and again this morning and saw no evidence of any wildlife any where near them. I am feeling so confident the I plan on opening a package of cookies later this afternoon which will be the ultimate test. A note to Glenn who suggest the borax paste the other day, Terro contains about 6% borax so your formula has real merit.
Today is the first day of the college football season with the first game starting at 8:00 am this morning. I'm sure there will be plenty of entertainment today as we assume the weekend posture while enjoying the good life.
Hope you are enjoying all the games while munching your cookies and watching ants consume Terro. Go Ducks!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Donna, It would be hard for life to get any better.
DeleteYou'll have to get a medal for the battle of Enjoying the Good Life. Be Safe!
ReplyDeleteIt's about time.
Not declaring victory yet, but making progress.
DeleteWe really enjoy college football. Those kids play their hearts out.
ReplyDeleteGlad you ant problem is now under control.
Terro does work.
DeleteI guess it's easier to sweep up dead ants than it is to dispose of dead mice. Ant droppings are probably minute as well. :)
ReplyDeleteand there pelts are worth very little.
DeleteGlad you got rid of the ants. They are a real pain.

We're on the way, they are still encamped just outside the perimeter waiting to strike.
DeleteSo, are the cookies a peace offering for the ants to leave you alone?
ReplyDeleteNot at all, I'm stingy and refuse to share. This is what got the war started in the first place when they helped themselves to my cookies without asking.
DeleteJust to be on the safe side you can put the left over cookies if there are any in the fridge.
ReplyDeleteBut I hope you have won the war.
Leftover cookies...what's that?
DeleteI remember many, many years ago my first encounter with sugar ants & my cookies! I was in my very own apartment as a young adult. My first real place that I could call my own with no one else living with me! Yay...but boo, I wasn't alone. The %$#@ ants were eating my first box of cookies!!!
ReplyDeleteHa! Hope you've gotten rid of them for good.
Haven't seen one in three days. New package of cookise has been opened.
