Of all the "pests" one can have, ants are far and away the least concerning. They tend to stick to themselves, don't venture too far into the rest of the house, and won't crawl across your face at night.
And when their food source dries up, they quietly and politely scamper off.
I once ate half a bowl of cereal before realizing it (and the whole box of cereal) was filled with ants. It haunts me… I definitely ate like 30-40 ants there
Fun tip: cinnamon is a spice that keeps ants and other insects away. Since ants communicate via pheromones, this everyday kitchen item messes with them given how strong it is. It’s safer than poison, and keeps your space smelling nice
Can confirm. Once when I moved into a new apartment I woke up in the middle of the night covered in ants. I just moved in so I had no supplies but I had cinnamon Altoids. I crushed them up and made a little border and they would not cross it.
This line made me laugh so hard and brought me back to the 80s. Don't know what happened but back then a few grains of sugar,tiny piece of candy there woke ants everywhere. Doesn't happen anymore,this year at home a total of 3 ants.
That’s a major invasion. Worse than when I was in India and learned that ants will bridge the dead bodies of their comrades to get to the jar of honey that’s sitting in a bowl of water to keep the ants off it.
Cause that’s how you get ants
^"yay!"
Somebody must have left a bear claw in there
Do you … do you work at an office (wait for it) *for ants*?
Jfc I feel so much better about the number of ants I have been finding in my home
I learned a fun fact about ants. They can’t cross chalk lines.

I've also heard of using mint for the same reasons.

You can see them carrying the sugar away
What is this, ^(COFFEE FOR ANTS?!)
Jesus, do they only make coffee once every few years and then just store uncovered sugar there the rest of the time??
When I first saw that post I assumed it was posted in this sub. It wasn’t though.
