The ant problem in my kitchen isn’t getting any better. I’ve torn apart the kitchen and sprayed two different types of spray now in all the cracks and crevices I can find. They go away for about two weeks, then they find their way back somehow. The main thing about them is there is never any kind of trail that I can follow back to see where they are coming in from. They’ve just kind of been there, crawling around randomly.

This all changed on Saturday though, when I noticed a couple coming in from the gfci switch on the wall. Those little suckers are coming in through the outlets! I also saw them coming in through the switch that turns on the recessed lighting overhead. I got my spray out and asked Mike to spray them outlets because I was afraid I would get electrocuted. HA! He sprayed around the edges, and we haven’t seen any ants in a couple days. I know it’s just a matter of time before they come back though. I think it’s time to call in a professional. I’m just sick and tired of them, and I want them gone.
