nah. no it isn't. the queen's life, maybe. but individual ants? nah. nice job anthropomorphizing though really tugs on them ol' heart strings when you see 'em as little Disney characters with the voices done by your favorite movie stars.Originally Posted by Koojo

"is ants. little ones."
That doesn't look real... where are the blood and guts when the birds explode?
I was entertained by watching red ants carry off the bodies of their mates recently. Just killing one at a time then watched as the ant paramedics came and carted them off... Then I got a gardener (was in a resort) to commit genocide on them with chemical warfare as they were a bit close to my room.
Hope I don't come back as an ant.
did you watch where they took 'em? ant colonies all have a Secret Burial Ground (called a "midden" btw).Originally Posted by rawlins
The ants are gonna fuk you up, and I fully support them on their revenge mission!
They may come alone:
Or they may bring their friends:

Snopes has a bit on the seagulls in this story about rice.

It is only a very small ant or termite nest that will be wiped out by torching or hot water- and the queen just compensates for the losses by laying more eggs. Chaindrite powder does the trick if you wish to genocide the whole colony, and is commonly available. Kill the queen, and you kill the colony. Personally I only visit such genocide on termite colonies that are uncomfortably close to my wooden house, or those pain in the arse little sugar ants that infiltrate everywhere if you don't wipe 'em out.
Where I live there are too many ants. I tried the TD recommendations of that powder and put the crap all over the place. I literally have probably used 15 cans of spray and powder in and around my house over a few years. They disappeared and came back. One of my kids seemed to get some sort of itchy rash the last time so now I just want to keep away from chemicals if possible. It's been a year now since I've really used anything. No one in my area uses the spray probably because people are just too poor and the ants just come back anyway. People jjust llive with them. It drives me nuts because I grew up in a cold northern climate where we just didn't have bugs all over the house 24/7. We live near a large reservior in a dry area of esarn so there seem to be a lot more bugs. The ants move closer to the water in the dry season it appears and climb when it wet. There will be lines going this way or that way depending on the season. When one colony gets obliterated, another one will work its way into the newly unoccupied prime land.
I use the hot water once in a while when I see a mega pile. It's worked for me on those mega piles. I dump about 2-3 hot gallons of water on the pile when I do it.
oh, fuk.
here we go with yet ANOTHER ant thread............
yes!
pour petrol over the fukka and torch him!
Brilliant...pouring boiling water down ants nests......
Recently I was eating a very hot Thai take away meal sitting by the cliffs near Newquay, being bothered by seagulls.
I threw them the red chillis and bones from my bbq ribs. They just swallow it all whole, but several choked up the bones and a few liked the chillis, I think....
sharks taking out your fish as you are bringing them to the surface can be dealt an environmentally friendly lesson , by boiling some potatoes ( microwave if you have one ) , then tossing them into the water when you have the bastards within a couple of meters of the surface as they are biting in half another of your sweetlips - they will swallow the boiling hot potato and then thrash/gyrate about in time to your hysterical laughter .
If you torture data for enough time , you can get it to say what you want.
