The great Bard once said “’tis best to weigh the enemy more mighty than he seems.” Had we embraced that mentality a few months ago, our family might have avoided the great ant infiltration of 2014.

While an occasional ant appearance is expected when winter thaws into spring, the tiny beasts waged an all out war on our bathroom this year. We’ve tried traps, sprays, and even had an exterminator come out, but within a few days, the ants always return.

Having ants in general is bad. Having them in the bathroom is torture. There is nothing worse than sitting down to do your business on the toilet, and discovering (too late) that an ant was lying in wait under the seat to bite you in the ass.

Is anyone else under attack? Have you discovered any surefire ways to get rid of invading ants?
