So, yeah, it's midnight and I'm carrying around a can of Black Flag which I'm using to assault a colony of several hundred ants that have wedge themselves into one of the corners of my ceiling. They'd even begun sending out colonies to attach themselves to the rest of the ceiling. :-\

PRESIDENT OSAMA'S GOVT. TAKEOVER OF HEALTHCARE IS ONLY HOURS OLD AND ALREADY WE HAVE A PLAGUE OF ANTS
ANTS
WHAT IS NEXT I ASK YOU, WHAT IS NEXT?
-
Yeah I have some too, as well as palmetto bugs. A good ol' spray of RAID around the apartment once each week keeps them the fuck out though. The south :-\
-
Well, I managed to deal with them without much trouble, but now my room reeks of poison and my skin's still crawling.
-
i would never spray raid indoors
-
I hate that feeling when you see a bug/spider in your room and even though you've killed it, for the next five hours you could've sworn there was a spider creeping up your shin.
-
you have no idea, try coming off a coke bender, youll be like that even though you havent seen anything and god help you if you do
-
Ants are the insect I hate the most because they're NEVER alone.
I've encountered a swarm a few times in my apartment and usually lemon-scented Raid can patch up their entry way. I love winter in Los Angeles, because it means no bugs. But springtime = flies and ants, regardless of how clean you are.
It got bad at my complex last year and I started spraying around a door frame near my parking structure because maintenance didn't get there for a few days. I sprayed and left. An entire door frame covered all around in dead ants. Got cleaned up the next day.

Pretty much, yeah. :'(

And yet you do meth, might as well start spraying raid inside.
-
At least it isn't maggots in your eye. Who else actually watched that video from gaf? :yuck

:lol
might as well start huffing the raid instead

Why though? The label says you spray it at cracks and baseboard openings. That's indoors.

Chalk. 'nuff said.
Edit: The hippie method - Follow the trail. Find where they are coming in and what they're going after. Get rid of what they're going after. Block up the point of entry.

Not me. I just linked it to rodi. :lol

This kind of thing happened to me once. I was on the crapper and felt something on my foot. Figured it was just the pants around my ankles or something. Then I felt it again. I look down, and this HUGE brown cockroach is on my foot. I get wide-eyed and jump up, run and grab raid, kill it, and flush it down the toilet. Had me freaked out for weeks.
Another time, in the same bathroom, I was about to use the toilet and notice a spider coming down from the air conditioner vent on the ceiling. It was tiny but still made me jump.
Then in the same bathroom AGAIN, I get up at 4am one early morning to use the toilet and as soon as I turn the light on, another HUGE cockroach jumps off the side of the doorway, as if to assault me. :lol Ninja reflexes kick in and it misses.
A few months ago, I'm playing video games and my wife is watching some video with headphones. I pause the game and there's not a sound to be heard...except for the distinct sound a roach scurrying around. It's on the wall that is taken up by several bookcases housing my game collection. I run and grab the bug spray and get the little fucker, then realize that it's going to be a major pain in the ass moving everything should it fall behind the bookshelves. Luckily it sort of sprang off the wall, hit the floor and started running. One more blast of raid killed it. We don't have much of a bug problem in this house, but when they do show up, it always seems to be this kind of shit that happens. :lol :'(
Back when I was living in Japan, one late fall evening, (Evilbore member) Originalz and I were hanging out, and he asks me if there's a bug problem in the wintertime. I'm like "nope, never seen a one when it gets cold...they disappear!" And wouldn't you know it? I go home around 2am and find a cockroach crawling up the wall as I sit down to use the computer. My wife is fast asleep in the next room where my jacket is. But it's not that cold and the convenience store is right around the corner. They're sold out of bug spray. So I start walking to the next convenience store about five minutes' walk away, and it starts POURING. They have bug spray, so I buy it and make a mad dash for the apartment. I'm completely soaked and spend the next five minutes hunting down the roach and disposing of it.

Thats one of the worst thing about sub tropical climates, the fucking roaches. Luckily civilzed Europe has none of these problems.
Yeah, but what about in Poland? :smug
-
:wtf
I'm certain roaches are worldwide. I distinctly remember there were roaches in the UK when I was growing up.
Speaking of which, I had moved into my first apartment and was about to use a shower when I see the silhouette of the largest fucking roach I have ever seen in existence. It was on the other side of my transparent curtain. I then proceed to turn on the lights, only to find I was mistaken. It was in fact two roaches making babies, end to end.
-
My apartment is infested with koala bears. It's the cutest infestation ever. Way better than cockroaches. When I turn on the light, a bunch of koala bears scatter, but I don't want them too. I'm like, "Hey... Hold on fellows... Let me hold one of you, and feed you a leaf."
-
Nothing is more annoying than the problem I'm dealing with here at home. Ever since my girlfriend let her father basically squat at our place he's been the bearer of all things annoying and disgusting. Not even a week after he came we had fleas and ticks in our house. Theres nothing quiet like being woken up by the pain of a tick bitting into your crotch.
Two exterminators later and the fleas have come back and I'm highly allergic to their bites. I still haven't fully healed from the first round of them from back in august. Just be thankful its not a biting blood pest like fleas and ticks cause they are the worst! Time to fog the apartment... DEATH TO THEM ALL!!!
-
How do you know he has ticks? Aren't those hard to see? I've never seen one irl, I don't think.

Ticks are usually pretty big [especially if they've been feeding], bigger than fleas and its possible to spot those on animal. Or a person, I guess.
-
How does a man have ticks? Have you told your gf's father to like, take a bath, G?
-
Himu, stop posting in this thread and reply to your PMs, I sent you a tantalizing proposition and you are iGNORING IT.

:rofl
I don't see many ants in my room, although sometimes in the summer they find a way through the kitchen window. I've noticed spiders recently, in my room and just about everywhere; just last night I killed one before going to bed. I've had many night hallucinations where I think I see spiders slowly climbing from the ceiling down to my face, and I jump out the bed/turn on the light and realize nothing's there.

Her father was/is homeless. She brought him into our home and his habits have continued and really fucked up our lifestyle and home. He hates to shower and clean himself and he doesn't even clean his clothing. I have to do it for him :maf that on top of the binge drinking and his lack of care for his own cat I'm going mad!
Ticks are pretty small when they start out, but after they feed you can see them fuckers. Fleas are worse though as they can breed so much in just hours.
-
As I suspected, I had a brief image just after I went to sleep of me turning over my pillow and finding it covered in ants. I instantly woke up and for several seconds I wasn't sure if it had really happened or if it was just a dream. :-\
-
He was homeless? He didn't ask his daughter for help? What happen there?
-

Sounds like her father has mental health issues.

He had been homeless for years since coming back from The Gulf War and then going to prison. We lost track of him a few years back until we were contacted last year by a hospital. Telling us that he was in ICU from severe head trauma. His camp where he had been living for sometime was attacked by a group of methheads they assaulted him and a few others. So we did the right thing at the time and took care of him. But little did we know about his habits and his way of life. Its been a battle ever since between myself and my girlfriend. I've given him all the chances to find a job or to get his social security disability and veteran disability funds. He's just using our generosity and he'll continue to do it till my girlfriend says otherwise or I leave for good.
His mental health issue is that he has seizures which aren't helped by him drinking at all. And he drinks cause of PTSD from the war. Its just a bunch of excuses is all.
-
I call bullshit. This is G, after all.
-
^
what a chronic liar ::)
-
Well those are some pretty hefty excuses. I think he might need to get his issues sorted out first. I can't imagine who would hire him in that state.

Ugh, dude, seriously...don't believe anything this guy says. G is a huge fucking liar. He also said his dad had been shot dead years ago and then posted recent pictures of him hanging out with his dad.

I never said he was dead explicitly Ichirou. I've cleaned my act up a lot over the past few years. So whatever if you don't believe me.

What about all your PlayStation 3s? You never said you owned multiple PlayStation 3s explicitly? You're a massive attention whore/bullshit artist, dude.

Himuro hasn't seen a tick because I bet they are hard to spot on dark skin. :(
That's what I'm thinking as well.

At least its not motherfucking mosquitoes.

it like a freudian slip of your eyes or something, you should know that FM being a psych student and all, geez. ::)
Anyhow seeing as this is a bug thread I will share an xtreme experience of mine. One day I was buck naked drying myself after a shower. I grabbed a pair of undies and jumped into them as you do. I felt this horrifc sharp pricking sensation against my nutsack, I thought it was dead grass or something as I had just mowed the lawn and I had dried my washing on the line. I looked into my pants and started screaming, there was a 5 inch WETA* on my balls, rubbing its serated legs on them. I always check my undies for Wetas now.
*This is a Weta:

Back in elementary school I had to go for a physical after our class spent the day hiking at a nature trail. When I took my shirt off, a huge tick started crawling across my chest. They said I turned white as a sheet. :lol The doctor used tweezers to get it off, but it hadn't bitten me.
-

at night we all run around in the dark from cottage to cottage and party with people, then the occasional walk to the woods to smoke some pot
