The war… correction, wars are on… Molly vs. the termites and Molly vs. the ants. So far the termites and ants are both winning. Stay tuned for further details.

First day in my ‘home’ I noticed the termites. I asked my ‘small boy’ where I could get some insecticide, and he came back with this white powder stuff. I sprinkled it around the edge of my room and a few days later I started to sweep up some dead termites. But that’s not to say that I don’t notice a small pile of powdered wood on my floor in the mornings and I haven’t seen the crazy designs that they are leaving in my furniture. Then one night as I was writing a blog posting, sitting on my new chair thing I got this feeling that things were crawling all over me. I started wiping my back only to be killing these small, baby insects. Then I noticed this small hole in which they were coming from, crossing the wall to land on my chair thing and then crawl on to me. I decided to investigate. Pulling out my tools… rather my head lamp… I saw that they were baby termites. And I stated to smash them with my finger (I know you’re probably thinking disgusting, but that’s what I was doing as they crawled all over my body). I sprinkled some more insecticide down and I’m hoping that this mass-murdering thing starts to work… PLEASE…

The ‘War on Ants’, well no matter what I do they are there… in my beans, in my veggies. On my wall, in my Tupperware, in my double-bagged items… they are EVERY WHERE. I re-bag, I clean my counters and walls with bleach, I sprinkle insecticide on the perimeters of my room and on my shelves… I also kill them with my thumb, and yet they still come back and they are thriving on whatever they are getting a hold of in my kitchen. ARGGGGGG!
