Ant issues!!!

Baby powder or comet sprinkled in the area they are coming in at they won't step over it. Also there is an ant powder that you can squirt in your plug outlets. I hate ants!!

But If I didn't want to sign, no problem. It was their mistake and the service was free. Felt kinda bad. So I ended up using them at my business. They seem to be pretty fair.

Good to know, I am going to schedule to them to come out for an estimate. Think I will just try it the one time and see how it goes before doing some sort of contract. Like I said, I am right next to a wash for run-off so I am guessing it will be a continuing issues and I may have to do some kind of maintenance contract. We will see...

You should add some garlic to that little coctail as well. Fend off the vampires!

I dont mind them so much, but Kim absolutely hates them!!!!
2 weeks ago, our frige in the garage was completely saturated with thousands of them. Not actually in any food or anything just inside the doors of the freezer. Many of them froze to death as well....Just Horrible!!!
