    Tamara, get some TERRO T300B Liquid Ant Killer, Bait Stations, and follow directions. We have a beach house and the aunts are atrocious, we use these when the armies attack. Sending positive vibes and prayers your way. You are doing much better than I could ever do with such a new adjustment!! ❤🙏🏻 ✝

    We use those Terro liquid baits every spring. When my boys’ were little, they loved watching the ants swarm the bait and take back to their “friends” as I called them😂. It’s like a little science project that Winston may get a kick out of.

    If the egg was cooked in bread, it was egg in a basket. If it was cooked in the middle of a hash brown or corned beef patty it was egg in a nest. Toad in a hole was a baked breakfast casserole with eggs, cheese, biscuits pieces and sausages. The sausage was the toad.

    Diatomaceous earth mixed with black pepper and borax around the trailer and in all corners and drawers will get rid of your ants. I use a BBQ squirt bottle and cut the tip down and squirt it around all the edges. 1 cup each DE/borax. 1/4 cup pepper…mix well.

    The bouquets of flowers you & Winston picked were perfect. I call those eggs Toad in a Hole (my son likes making them since he learned how in school last year). Ants are horrible things; once you see one then it seems the entire colony moves in. We get them every Spring without fail. Vinegar & dish soap is a spray bottle has helped so far this year. Fingers crossed that July is a fantastic month for you & your family!!

    Tamara, have you ever heard of meebas. That's what I was told it was. You take corn tortillas and tear them up and throw them into some butter. Let the corn tortillas soak up a little of that butter then add eggs in since it's you and your son add four or five eggs in the pan and scramble in the eggs and cheese of your choice. Cook until the eggs are the way you like them. You can cook in a pan, or your little stove that you use or your black stone. Then eat with warm flour tortillas or toast. You can add in anything to the mix but I prefer the basic. I'm half Spanish and half Italian. My momma was Spanish and she made this for us as children. Have a great day. You seem to be doing well. Love the relationship you have with your son. Mine is 44 and he's my best friend. My beautiful daughter was my Bestie to but God called her home. Have a blessed and happy week.😊😊😊

    I usually lay down several ant traps throughout my house in the spring. On the floors in corners,out of the way. Under my pantry doors on the floor. It seemed to work for the spring and summer. I replace them every spring. I rarely see ants in my house since I started doing this. Any brand of trap. They are small. I use about 8-10 through out the house. Good luck.

    Hi Tamara. My Daddy also called it "bird in a nest." Winston was pretty good on that pogo stick! FYI: Household items like citrus fruits, black pepper, peppermint oil, cayenne, thyme, and lavender can create natural ant repellents. Essential oils like peppermint, lemon, and eucalyptus have been known to deter ants from entering your home.

    If you’re looking for a natural solution to get rid of the ants, use clove oil. They absolutely hate the smell. I boil some clove spice in water and spray everything. It works absolutely great, i used it on my red currant bushes because they were building nests in it. Out side you can infuse coconut oil with clove spice, the oil should last longer than water. I get ants here all the time, I use to use salt, but the cloves were hands down better.😊

    Ants are the worst... I understand about eyeballing your pantry and being afraid of what you'll come home to. Having to clean out the pantry really derails any other plans you had for your day. We call it egg -in-the-hole. Our extended family stopped for breakfast at a rural diner and our bratty cousin matter of factly ordered egg-in-the-hole. Grandma said, you have to tell the waiter what it is. So he did and they made it for him. Next time we stopped there, it was on the menu.

    That’s the first time I’ve ever seen eggs done that way, it must be an out west thing. Also, those pesky ants we have them too a there really bad after the rain. I too spray but I have found that they don’t like baby powder or cinnamon. If you sprinkle either around areas you see them they won’t come back to that area. Also, for safe pet/people ant spray checkout Wondercide. Its great stuff an safe for everyone.
