A few weeks ago, ants invaded the kitchen. Eventually, their battalions were beaten back outside the door. Walking outside today, the roommate saw what appeared to be a very out of place pile of dirt in the back yard. Turned out to be the biggest mass of ants I've ever seen congregating above ground outside those Discovery channels specials about army ants marching through South America. Roommate doused the bastards with petrol & I lit it up with a match. I credit hundreds of hours of watching Mythbusters with saving me from getting immolated in the ensuing fireball.

So there's still more of them in the vicinity... Hmm, will have to keep a look out.

Another gathering of ants happened literally right in my backyard yesterday. Same result, only this time the amount of gasoline used wasn't enough to fuel a Humvee for a few 'round the world journeys. If I keep going mass murder/arson on these goddamned things, will the eventually take the hint & leave?

Don't know if it would work for an ant nest, but I read that one way to kill a subterranean hornet nest was to get a beer bottle full of gasoline, and up-end the next into the opening of the hive and let it sit overnight. The fumes kill them.

Please don't pour out a beer. can probably find an empty bottle for you. Working on a canada club in the garage. heh.
In marriage there is always one person right. And the other one is the husband.
Can't even figure where the nest is. Tried to watch where they ran when I went all Backdraft on them, but it's well camouflaged.
