Exclamation I got an Ant Problem!

There are BIG Black Ants EVERYWHERE in my house! I woke up this morning to go to work, and I noticed them on the walls and on the floor, so I hurried up and sprayed some Ant Killer around every door way we got.

I get home today from work and it's like they doubles in size and in Numbers, I mean there EVERYWHERE now! What the heck!

there BIG black Ants that look like they have teeth just about! I'll be laying on the couch and they come after me and crawl all over me just as I'm about to fall asleep to take a nap! It gets me so mad cause I have no idea where there coming from. I mean I sprayed the hell out of the door ways and some window sills that are open.

how else do you get rid of these Black Giants? where talking in the Hundreads here

May not be ants, may be small roaches.

Call an exterminator now.

We had a bad ant problem at my mom's house a few years ago.... there were thousands of ants and probably 100 flying ones in the basement. Exterminator fixed us up.

I didn't notice them until this morning, now I can't seem to look at anything without having to see an Ant roaming around the house! There not the little ones, there the Big *** ones! I got about 3 more gallons of this Ant Killer but I don't know where else to use it at? I got pets so I can't spray inside the house, just around the door ways and window sills, but where the heck did all those dumb things come from?

Sounds like he's watched the movie Eight-Legged Freaks one too many times.

I bet by tommorrow the ants will have grown one-hundred times their normal size, and will have destroyed his whole entire city and part of another.

I don't know the name, but there is a type of poison that is a white powder that you buy in large bags and you literally place a phyiscal wall around the entire outside of your house. they will NOT cross it. that doesn't solve what you have inside already, but it will help for the future.

Not mutating, he's just been dropping "special brownie" crumbs.

i had a bunch of ants on the porch. a quick spray killed them all. i think all the rain we've been having has driven them to higher ground. i had previously spray ant killer around the door so they haven't entered the house. (yet)

Kill the Queen Ant Matt! It'll wipe out every one of them little bastards if you can kill her. There's a million to one odds you'll find her, but good luck in your search. You can do it!

They come from the inside to get away from the rain and water. Consider them 'refugees'...
