Ants in my plants
« on: June 29, 2011, 06:16:01 PM »
I said PLANTS not PANTS, ok?  Having created the Aerial Herb Garden™ indoors I now find that i seem to have a small expeditionary force of teeny weeny ants patrolling the interior window ledge  evil: evil:

They're obviously robust little things since the drop from the plant (presumably their domicile) is about 100x their length. Imagine being dropped from 500 / 600 feet ...  scared2:

Are they good news?   Shall I keeeel them?    eveilgrin:   OR     angel1
