Right, well, my attic, where my PC is, is now infested with carpenter ants. ANTS! GRR! [http://forums.massassi.net/html/mad.gif]

Anyway, my dunno what I've done to deserve this, but they're like EVERYWHERE! Even my cats, who normally eat any type of bug, run from them. Luckily, I have the laptop downstairs to type with. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif] To bad it's as slow as my IQ in Math. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif]

I just thought I'd tell you this, HORRIFIYING story.

You should set ant traps. Then instead of being infested with live ants, your computer will be infested with rotting dead ones!

No, see they're not IN my computer, they're IN my ATTIC. As in, on the roof, in the walls, carpet, etc.

Raid Ant & Roach spray. That stuff's powerful. I've taken out nests of wasps with it.

Most hardware stores and some convenience stores will sell you pesticide traps that kill the ants slowly. They smell it, come to it and drag a chunk home where all the other ants share communally in its neurotoxinal goodness. Just keep your cats away from them and the ants after the ants have started using it.

You can also cover your computer with ant poison and glue. That should get the job done.

You really need to tell you folks so they can get the problem taken care of. Don't take carpenter ants lightly, I've seen them eat entire floor joists. Do you have any idea how hard it is to fix that?
