seriously, last tuesday (9 days ago) i emptied a whole f'ing can of RAID in the vent, then i completely sealed it up with caulking, but apparently i missed a spot or something because after 7 days, they started to come back

edit:

also Ryan, i think next saturday (the 21st) it sounds like am going to fly with my buddy from minne (can't remember the actual airport, but it is in the Class B) we are going somewhere in MI in a Seminole, then he said on the way back we will be part 91, so i can log like 2 hours of that flight! I am not going to complain about logging 2 free hours of multi time

FB, you need to kill the nest...obviously the Raid won't do the job....I have used poisons that were sort of a thick liquid/gel (obtained from a local pharmacy shelf the last time I needed it) that the ants take back to their nest and poison their own queen...I can't remember the name of the stuff, but I'll bet that if you ask, someone will know...I HATE ants!

the problem is they aren't going back they are just crawling around my bathroom.
i was thinking about getting some ant traps, but i am not sure.
any other ideas? i know ant traps work, but only if they take the poison back, and they aren't crawling back
i can also have Terminex come and spray next wednesday, i guess they come up here every wednesday (no charge to me of course)

If you ask the Terminix guy he will give you some baits...if they're getting in, they're getting out...

Free time is always a plus!

And if you can get Terminex to spray for free, I'd go for that too.

i can't remember where we are flying too, i could just check the message, but nah! some little town i have never heard of.

flight will be in a Seminole, but hey free multi is free multi, no complaints here. and the seminole isnt that bad of an airplane i haven't flown since my checkride, so it will be nice to get back in the air again, i want to fly next week with the gF sometime, but not sure if that will happen or not. I have the money, it is just the matter of finding the time to do it
