Well, this is what you get when you don’t take care of business.

Just a quick cleaning of that bad spot on the wall, I said to myself.

The drywall gave way in a little spot and thousands of ants were very surprised.

A couple of garbage bags and lots of shop-vac work with the old bag-less canister vacuum cleaner (I’m often glad I saved it.) and viola:

The kicker is that there’s a certain satisfaction in watching the little bugs desperately running around like Bond villain minions at the end of the movie. You can forget you’re destroying your own house and revel in just blowing things up. Yesss.
