My husband and I woke up yesterday to an ant infestation in our kitchen. We’ve been well-trained by the exterminator who services our house not to pull out the can of Raid, but to call the experts. It’s hard to watch a trail of fire ants milling about your stovetop, along your backsplash, and up the wall, and not kill the offending beasts. But we let them be and called our technician who applied a pheromone which attracts the blighters who dutifully carry it back to their nest and destroy the whole colony. It’s been a lesson in patient watching and waiting, letting nature take its course.
Much as I want them out of my kitchen I admire the single-mindedness of those cursed ants. They have a mission. They follow their path with steadfast determination. They know their job and they don’t try to do someone else’s. And they work as a team.
I behave more like the knights in Monty Python and the Holy Grail, constantly seduced off mission by needless quests for shrubbery or to battle rabbits with sharp pointy teeth. I’m searching for grand adventure when maybe my way is just a well-trod path in line with the saints.

Should we give ants asylum? I don't want to. They are not like the turkey our President will pardon on Thanksgiving. LOL
Thanks Merle, appreciate it very much. Have a blessed day
Me too Merle. I thought that was very good.
Love the way you have used the ants in this post. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much Terri, Have a wonderful day, you too. God bless.
A like and shared your post Learning from Ants. Whatever purpose ants serve on this earth, you can believe there is one because God created all things for a reason. His infinite wisdom is beyond our understanding and there is one which we don't know about now. Perhaps one day if we live long enough will know what it is. LOL until then you just call the exterminator to remove them from your house because I'm sure they are not supposed to reside in your home. Have a blessed day Mercutio.
Thank you Angela, appreciate the support.
Great PR Mercutio. Thanks for sharing this information. Liked and Shared.
