I feel bad for the kitties and the pooch.

And the parents.

Even the ants (sort of).

The idiot, not so much.

Good thing he never heard the phrase 'Nuke it from orbit' ;-)

An active ant problem? In Maine, in March? Not to likely. Drugs.

Hey, it was their house. Their son can burn it if he wants. The insurance company shouldn’t pay a dime of the intentional fire.

Maine's state fire marshal says a man burned down his parents' house and killed three pets while trying to exterminate ants in his basement with matches.

Investigators say 21-year-old Devon Doucette was trying to incinerate the ants with wooden matches when one of them ignited combustible materials. The fire quickly spread to the rest of the house.

...the house is owned by his parents, who were not home at the time... the fire killed two cats and one dog. They say charges are not likely.

Maine's state fire marshal says a man burned down his parents' house and killed three pets while trying to exterminate ants in his basement with matches.

Investigators say 21-year-old Devon Doucette, a registered democrat, collins, king, pingree and baldacci supporter, was trying to incinerate the ants with wooden matches when one of them ignited combustible materials. The fire quickly spread to the rest of the house.

...the house is owned by his parents, who were not home at the time... the fire killed two cats and one dog. They, the demcrat controlled AGs office, say charges are not likely, for as obama did not prosecute black criminsals, we here in Maine AGs office do not prosecute good party of the IMBECILE criminal members.

PIC or TERRO [about 5% borax] liquid works for me.

I get about 3 ant invasions every couple of years of small black ants. They load up on the PIC or TERRO and take it home. After about a week, no more ants for several months.

The liquid bait does seem preferrable to burning down the apartment complex.

borax kills ants where they live
