Hiya!
There are ants in my flat! So far I haven't seen a "colony" or line of ants, mainly random workers. Now my town is ridden with flying ants currently (I blame the weather)
My flat is very, very clean and tidy, got a little ocd about cleaning when I spotted the first ant. Any idea why they're here? I use tea tree oil and water in a spray bottle, got those bait gel traps, lavender behind sofa but they refuse to bugger off!
It makes me feel so dirty, I have checked they have no food source! everything's sealed in Tupperware, no crumbs etc
I have no pets or children (yet I'm on mumsnet because I thought you might be able to help me) so where shall I put poison? Will dead ants attract more?
Maybe I'm just freaking out because this is my first time living alone and a few ants are just something I have to live with?
Thanks in advance!
