Just wait 'till you get fire ants that try to eat yer computer! They cause major problems with traffic lights and stuff in south america when they eat up the wires

My computer was infested with 'em a while back...every now and then one would try to mess with an LED in one of the fans and get sucked in and I'd hear a "zzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZzzzz TINK!" It drove me nuts

One time some ants built an entire nest (including a queen and larvae) behind my sister's filter on her tank. When we discovered it, all of the fish in our house had a grand feast.



I'm not your neighbor, you Bakersfield trash.

I had the same problem with ants.first i saw few of them on my keyboard i removed them and turned on my computer.Then i noticed many ants coming and going out of the computer...i had the floppydisc in and they have destroyed the floppydisc..two months of work destroyed



I know human beings and fish can co-exist peacefully.
