Ants


I found a flying ant in the kitchen yesterday. Then one by my bed at bedtime, followed by another. I "captured" them and took a close look to make sure that they were ants and not termites. This morning I caulked the area around an electrical plate that I determined they might have come in through. Next, a review of the outside of the house. No ants on the ground, but I did spread some boric acid anyway... and then!!! They there were, ants, merrily marching up and down the telephone wire into the house/attic. Here is one of them - proof it's an ant, not a termite.
