They're back...

Had a lovely 10 day long holiday in KL. When I came back, guess who was there to greet me? My favourite guys...the half-black half-red ants!!

Not too sure what they were trying to do. It was pretty weird. I have this bottle of cooking oil. I put some kitchen towel under it to catch the oil drips. The ants were there, sort of just walking around and they had collected some sort of debris (which I can only guess is from the cement under my cooking hob and sink or the wood from the cupboards). Anyway, it seemed like they were trying to make some sort of nest or something. They were piles of it here and there. It wasn't scattered around; they were in groups. So anyway, cleaned that up.

Next morning, as I was brushing my teeth, felt something bite my ass. Got hubby to check. Was a red bump there. Damn ants!! Looked at the bed, found one or two walking around.

Later, went into the bathroom. We have a packet of cottonbuds by the sink. Bunch of ants in there, just nuzzling in the cotton!! Why? Why? I ask myself? What is it that these ants want? Anyway, washed that off.

Today morning, after my shower, took my panties out of the wardrobe. I usually don't inspect my panties but this time as I was about to wear it, I saw some spots. Thinking it was dirty, decided to take a closer look. Lo and behold! ALOT...seriously ALOT of ants there. Don't even want to imagine what it would be like to have worn those panties on without knowing. Painful is a word that comes to mind though.

I give up! I seriously keep the house really nice and clean (because of the ants) but apparently, indonesian ants are not like normal ants. They're not after the sweets and food. They've got altered tastes.

HELP! Someone? Anyone? Shed some light here...
