Sally--I was wondering if the ants that eat the Terro liquid die in the bait fixture--
or do they drink/eat it and then go die in their colonies?????

So far--i have only noticed this one area in my kitchen that has ants goinr up and down the wall.
Can't really see a "trail". Seems random.
BUT--I am sure they must come in from the non-existent, rotted out door sill at the base
of my unused kitchen side door.
It IS a damp area there.....as the rain just sheathes down the siding and hits the base of the door.

Maybe I should set one of these Terro traps outside under the door sill?

Time to go watch the Olympics.......MAN!!! The women's Volleyball was beyond impressive today!!!
My old love--the sport of Volleyball.

Here is a picture of my team from 1963--the year i got married.
Can you ID me?????

edited to add that "Whitey"--the coach we had back then (pictured) is still playing Volleyball at the Sr. center
where I started playing a couple of years ago. I stopped a couple of years ago. Various reasons....
"Whitey" is now 93--I think....Longevity rules in a sports minded body and soul.
