Ok I was out tuning my new amp and was starting to route wire for the remote bass ****. I go and lift up the weathertech mat on the front passengers side and Mother of God there was a friggen infestation of ants in my truck!

I don't know wtf they was eating or how they got there, but there had to be 1000 of those little bastards. I keep my truck clean maybe a occasional fry gets under the seat, but I vacuum about once a month. How the heck that many ants got into my truck that I drive every day several times a day is beyond me.

Well those little guys are now having a party in my shop vac with some heavy doses of insecticide.

 

Damn that sucks. . but this does remind me of mountainqueer!!

 

I had a fruit fly infestation in my Escape... what did I do?!

I got a couple of those house foggers in a can. Lit off 4 of 'em in that little SUV and shut the windows, doors, and kept'em closed over night. Those bugs had no chance. haha

Aired the SUV out all day the next day. No bugs would even go near it.

 

It's definitely the french fries, crumbs, etc. Those guys go after anything.

 

Inspect closer, there is a better than average chance you will find a small leak, probably from the windshield seal and that is where it puddles. Those guys like water.
Man those guys were set!!!
Water, the added food supply from the crumbs and thier own little bio sphere from the real elements, occasionlly heated and cooled during driving provided temproary relief. They had teh hook up now!

 

TERRO antkiller works wonders!

 

OMG, Mountaineer revisited!!!

Oh, sorry about the ants Impact9

 

I feel sorry for the ants. They had a sweet setup and I annihilated their entire colony.

MUHAHAHAH!

 

Could have set a Praying Mantis loose on them. The Mantids are one mean ***-kicking insect.

 

Yea I can see that now...

I put a praying manthis loose in my truck. It's all good and it kills off the ants but by this time I forget about him in the truck. I'm then driving to work and I look over to my right and this giant manthis is on my shoulder doing that freaky head wobble thing with his head as big as my fist. I freak out he freaks out we're all freaking out.

yea... probably not a good idea.

 

LMAO, I can soooo see that happeneing too.

 

Yes they are docile when we pick them up because it's in their best interest, however, if they were bigger we'd see the other side.

I have no doubt that a huge Mantid would try to put an *** kicking on a man without thinking twice.

 

I use Starting fluid and a lighter to get rid of ant colonies. After I lite em up, I wait for the others to come out of the ground to pick up the corpses, than I lite them up to...

 

Not many people think like that.
When I was a little kid I couldn't catch fireflys and rip thier flashers off to wear as jewelery like the other kids, because I thought: "man what if I was walking along and a giant picked me up, ripped my butt off just so he could wear it." I have always been a firm beliver in what goes around comes around and I wanted to keep my butt just wasn't worth the risk on the possibility that there was a giant some where.

 

Once, while reading in my yard, an infinitesimal bug landed on my book which annoyed me. I could have smashed it but then I thought; is my significance in the universe any greater than this bug? Could my life not be wiped away by the capricious hand of fate, just as my hand might wipe away the bug? I let the bug live.
