YES!

I just arrived home to find that what I thought might be termite holes really is! My whole door jamb was CRAWLING with the little winged bastards. Luckily, I am not especially creeped out by bugs and I promptly did what any sane person would do: I grabbed my can of Raid and SPRAYED THE FRAK out of them. As a bonus, it smells pleasantly lemony in here now, until the nerve toxins due me in.

Rock and roll, mass insect homocide. I guess I shall be ringing the landlord tonight.

oh jeez. be thankful you don't own - getting rid of termites sounds expensive.

I guess it is. My inlaws had to do it a few years ago.

Blech, I'm glad it's not really my headache beyond spraying them down.

I would have flipped. I HATE cockroaches.

Anyway, I don't get how the little buggers can live through a nuclear holocaust but a little can of Raid will do them in.

I have a really high tolerance for bugs. Centipedes and spiders are pretty much the only things that freak me out.

Yea, same. Though I usually smush roaches with my shoes, rather than killing them with Raid. Although, I have been known to kill bugs with the actual can of Raid.

Urgh. Just reading that gave me the shivers as I imagined them crawling...*shudder*

Hope you get rid of them soon...

Oh, I killed the frak out of them and then some. I think they're probably done hatching, anyway. I will have to buy more bug spray, though.

Well that's good at least! :)

Go to Costco! Buy in bulk! That way they'll never survive...(heh. heh. heh)

Very true. We need more Lucky Charms, too.

Nerve toxins suck.

Especially for those termites :)
