Me VS the Ants

Post by glassoftea »

I keep a computer in my large workshed, don't have room in the house for a computer lab so it's out there. I guess the cold, rainy weather has driven the ants indoors and they found a lovely spot in my antec 350 watt power supply. I noticed em making a trail across my workbench and up the side and across the fan. I turned the computer on to let me know they were not welcome, they didn't mind. I ended up taking the PS apart and found a huge pile of ants and some type of food source, small white packages, may have been baby ants, not sure.

I put out some terro, sprayed the hell out of all the live ants and sprayed the hell out of the outside of the shed with a barrier spray, hopefully that will do.

Anyone else every deal with this?

Nope but I did open up a case in a old house with wood floors once to fix it, and roaches came out like crazy. SICK
