The final duel with the ants…

by |Published

The ants were coming in from some cracks in the step connecting our spare room – once a garage – to the main living room. I caulked the holes, sprayed the area, vacuumed the carpet with our steam cleaners, and… um… valiantly fought back the ant army leader using only Raid and a Lightsabre?

Ha ha! See for yourself.
