I Tapped Out Last Week

I Tapped Out Last Week

Sorry my Lovelies, but I tapped out on Friday. I spent three days, Wed. thru Fri., battling demons (well ants – same thing really 😜) and after spending hours trying to control the issue, being bitten by those bastards, being near tears after the third invasion, and having nightmares because of them (and my ex – whole other story 😳), I just couldn’t write. I was this side of a complete meltdown because of those damn things.

Side note: MS Word really doesn’t like swear words, it keeps flagging them when I write. Today it’s bastards and damn that has it up in arms 😆.

Thankfully my bug company sent someone out Saturday to help (and by help, I mean he better kill them all 🔪) after I called them Friday nearly in hysterics. And although I’ve seen a few scouts since then no full-scale invasions like last week 😮‍💨. You better believe I am watching like a hawk for sure.

Before I close this portion of craziness out, let me give you a little tip or two – vinegar does not kill ants, even though some sights claim it will. Vinegar also did not appear to erase the pheromone tracks they leave or even prevent them from coming in after I sprayed the baseboards, as was suggested. And stay away from sprays that have natural oils in them. While they may work well, they will leave an oily mess and f🤬🤬k up your walls (yes, I have a couple of spots to fix thanks to a particular spray I picked up 😬). 

Takeaways from today – Ants really suck when they get into your house, vinegar is useless against them, and ant bites are annoying!

My short but sweet public service post for the month 😘!

Note: I would type out F🤬🤬K but a. I’m already annoyed by the flagging of curse words and b. I love this 🤬 emoji 🤣🤣🤣.
