Why do you want to hurt the little tiny black ants? They don't bite or sting. I have them living in my boat and I just leave them alone and they leave me alone. It's like they are outcasts... having to live in places where other more aggressive ants can't get to them. Don't hurt these little tiny black ants... they are good ants.

Well, because they invade our food for one.

I have these ants in my car. I was going to use the terro but I'm concerned I could be bringing them in from outside the car. This does work wonders though. I used it in the bathroom and it worked miracles.

I guess I just like seeing them around especially after having a dream vision that somehow these little tiny jet black ants somehow hold the key to curing cancer.

we recently found ants in our carpet too. they are brown in front and black in the end part.. not sure if these are fire ants.. is this some kind of "ant season" out there.. i am going to hope dopot to get tarro.

i was watching this documentary about fire ants on netflix.. these are a super creature with collective intelligence.. they can survive heat, cold, water flooding, poison.. during flooding in their native land, they can weaver themself into a floating fabric and can float for months. very interesting creatures that are here for 150 million years of evolution..
