Besides hating mosquitoes, I also hate ants, especially during the summer. Ants are everywhere! They multiply like there’s no tomorrow, just like flies do. I left my bagel with cream cheese on top of our dining table while I went out to buy soft drinks at the store, thinking it would be safe there, but was I wrong! After going out and getting back, I found my bagel with cream cheese surrounded! It was surrounded by those fast and black ants. Oh my snack! It’s been severely attacked. I am exaggerating. No I am not! Seriously.
So I went to the sink and I stared on the plate, my bagel with cream cheese, and those wild ants mocking me. I didn’t let the ants win, of course. I had to do something about this. My first thought was drown any ants with continuous running water, not just on my bagel with cream cheese, but on their ant hill. I tried to develop a sinister plan and began looking for their ant hill. I went outside and into our garden, I didn’t find them there. I went to our backyard and there they were. I asked my dad if ants could die in water, and said, they could but they can easily float and survive it. He recommended getting a bug spray.
I looked for our bug spray and found it. I started to shoot at them and sprayed them all to their extinction. I wish! While at it, I noticed another kind of ant, or were they ants? They are red and they have wings! I yelled for my dad and when he saw them, he realized those were termites! He asked for me to get Terminix, you know, the guaranteed termite assassinator! When I got back to him, he was ready to battle. He had on his head gear, a mask; gloves, so he won’t leave any fingerprints. After 15 minutes of treating the area, all we had to do was wait, wait for the queen.
Now, it was a success. I would’ve posted the picture of the termite queen, but, it was really disgusting. My dad had to squash it. I am so glad my bagel with cream cheese was attacked by those black ants, if not, we wouldn’t have discovered those termites. Summer does bring in a lot of unwanted insects!
but when I see one, I just let it go. lol.

If I had the power to make things vanish, I’d terminate mosquitoes first and foremost!
ehh. that is really disgusting!
though when i see one walking i just let it go too.
unless they also eat my food.
if u hate ants, i hate cockroaches!
@aileen: Yes, me too! Next would be ants and flies :D
Ew, that must’ve been disgusting and annoying. What about your bagel, did ou throw it away afterwards? Btw flying ants do exist (and they’re called…. flying ants ^^), they’re pretty annoying but not as annoying as the “normal” black ones. And the red, biting ones are even worse (Oh I remember playing hide ‘n seek at a camping site once and I sat down on a bit of grass… I regret doing that now, my legs [it was summer] were covered with red ants and I can tell you, that hurt). I’m glad you were able to get rid of them!

@Nanda: Yep, I threw the bagel away. I just made another one. I also dislike red ants, I experience being bitten on both my feet when I stepped on a rock during the night carnival. It really hurts! I can imagine the pain you went through when you got bitten on the legs. Super Ouch!
ick ick ick! I completely agree! I hate bugs with a passion. Luckily I live somewhere that doesn’t have too many.
