Under Attack!

     I have been dealing with our ant problem since we've moved into this house about 2 1/2 years ago and they've always been the little harmless black ants that are more annoying than anything. Now with the start of this winter I am having to fight against these big red ants that bite! I have an exterminator and he's been out 4 times in the last six weeks! Still, these ants torment me. I'm afraid to let my children play outside for fear they will get all bit up and I dare not leave a crumb on the counter or they'll swarm. With 2 kids and the everyday life of a mommy it is impossible to have this house totally sterile all the time. Just not gonna happen, yet I do know that my house isn't dirty enough to warrant all these ants. They appear in the strangest areas, the medicine cabinet for example. Really?! What in the world do they want in there? I have the exterminator coming one last time and we will see if anything changes. If not? Then the ants can have the house and we're moving. (Well I wish anyway)
