You people should do a Spinda living dex. Get all the patterns! :D

My house has a problem with sugar ants!

ReKoil · Nov 17, 2023

I had a pretty bad ant infestation a couple months back. They made their way in somewhere at the front of the house and if I walked down the hallway I'd see a trail of black dots scurrying about from one end of the house all the way to the other.
I could've kept squishing them forever and there would've been no end.

I placed ant lures when I spotted them, but the ant lures by themselves weren't doing much, possibly because there were just way too many ants.
Ended up using the more heavy duty ant powder the next day as it was getting very annoying. It was a ~~glorious~~ massacre that restored my house to an ant free place. =P

Afaik you can really mess with ants using soap.

Lavender · Nov 18, 2023

242 306

The reason that works is the soap overpowers the pheromone(a special scent) trail so the ants don't know where to go. I know so much things about bugs, There so cool!

ReKoil · Nov 18, 2023

I don't really mind insects as long as they don't come inside the house. Their lives are forfeit if they do =P
Barring a few exceptions.

I don't really like insects and indeed I'm afraid of most of them. Eveyone's like "you're tall, why are you afraid of them?". I don't get it. Is a wasp not going to sting you if you're taller? I don't think insects support height discrimination lol

Megan · Nov 19, 2023

242 309

Fortunately, unlike humans, animals don't think about things like discrimination!

Lavender · Nov 19, 2023

Although, beetles and other animals that have horns normally get priority over everything if they have the largest horns.

CoolKid575 · Nov 19, 2023

I don't really mind insects all that much as long as they aren't mosquitos, but my mom has a phobia of them so we don't have any in our house. Probably for the best lol.

I have this horror in my house from time to time. I always crush them ^^"

Megan · Nov 19, 2023

Last thing I need is getting them as a bonus from buying some fruit or vegetable, though. <_<

ReKoil · Nov 20, 2023

I've employed the local spider population to combat the flying insects =P
The ones in my bedroom don't seem to be doing much on first glance... but, I did find a couple dead mosquitos in spider webs just the other day (no idea how long they've been there though lol). Good job spiders.

The mosquitos are becoming very infrequent, but I did squish one yesterday in the bathroom. Still seeing moths fairly regularly though. Either the spider squad is slacking off or there's a lot of them.

I hate spiders, they freak me out.

Spiders are my favorite creatures! I never understood how people can be scared of them, my twisted brain sees them as adorable lil guys.

How could you crush those, they look so incredibly awesome! Arthropods are my babies and I will always protect them, lol.

Fortunately, no mosquitos for me, so far. But I have neough to deal with, as is. ^^"

Had to look up what they're called in English as in Dutch they're called 'oorwormen', but if I translated that directly I'd get earwurms, and earwurm is something entirely different in English.
Apparently they're called earwigs in English.

Anyway, I occasionally find one in my house. It's a kill on sight for me.

Lavender · Nov 21, 2023

You do know there's such thing as releasing them, right? You can just have it climb on a piece of paper :D

It's not one of the insects I make an exception for, so peace is not an option once it invades my house 😤
