Good idea. They have to go up 3 stories to get into my house so it such an effort for them. The big thing this year is spiders. We are having a bumper crop. <G>

When the rainy season starts here entire colonies of ants will move inside, looking for a new place to set up, carrying the queen, the eggs, the whole deal. They like to move into shoes; once I stuck a bare foot into a shoe that had been adapted, and regretted it. Not the biting kind, luckily they don't seem to move in. A long time ago in Mindanao I lay in bed on a rainy day and watched several thousand ants drag a chicken bone up a wall to the window where they were getting in. They couldn't get it out; they hadn't figured out that the hole wasn't big enough to accommodate the bone. Ants aren't very bright, which is probably a Good Thing.
