I kill things with love. :(

Crossville, TN(Zone 7a)

I was looking at my new flowers and just being happy. Then I saw this neat little Cat. Well I looked him over and ran to get an I.D- turns out he/she would have been an American Painted Lady.

I said would have because, I killed it. Yes, I killed that little baby!
I was watering my flowers when I saw him. :( Watering with FERTILIZER! ) I'm very sad. *sniff*. Hope there's a Heaven for baby butterflies- and not a Hell for baby butterfly killers. *cries*.

AAWW. Did you give it a funeral? That could make you feel better maybe.

Crossville, TN(Zone 7a)

No, the ants gave it a funeral. Maybe THEY killed it cause they knew I liked it so much. That's it. I had been killing ants that day and they were angry with me. THEY murdered my CAT!!!!!!! *cries harder*

Edgewater, MD(Zone 7a)

pat pat pat(on the back) We'll get those ants, Ive got some instant grits to give em. BWAHAHAHA

Crossville, TN(Zone 7a)

That really works? I'll try it! We always have grits around here, hehe.

Edgewater, MD(Zone 7a)

I havnt tried it yet but somewhere in here somone posted about it so I bought some. You have to use the instant kind.
From what I remember they take it down in the nest, everyone including the queen eats it and then when it expands it forms gases and ants cant burp,vomit (sorry if thats too graphic) and they die.
Its been raining so much here that Im afraid to put it down and give them a free meal after the rain hits it.

Better to wait for a sunny dry day. Hmm, Imma try it when it stops raining here!
