[Misc] What are you doing tomorrow?

Going to Mandurah for the day with wifey.
Will see the abandoned castle and visit the markets on the quay.
Probably see dolphins in the harbour and get Chilli Mussels at Cicerellos.
It is a 40min drive though and 36 degrees forecast.

After church, I trust.

After church I shall be waging war on the ant colony that thinks my home is their home!

Sorry, that should have been my first sentence.

Can you get a product called Rid there ?
It is great, you put a few drops down and then they flock to it in great numbers.
They consume it all and more if you put more down, they take it back to the nest and pass it round.
Job done and you never see them again.

Sorry, I assume with your location as ‘Downunder’, that you are here.
Only just noticed it, your local IGA will have stock.
Much better to use than the crap powders that get into everything.

So no-one is actually doing anything in recognition of International Sex Workers' Rights Day, then?

Get home, sleep, wake, workout, food, work for 9pm for night shift :-(

Hi Mike, yes here Downunder. We’ve used Ant Rid but they are still around in their thousands (millions?)

Just had a full on spray in and out with professional strength Mortein. Fingers crossed.

Little bar stewards!

Edited to give good summary of the church.

A bit late to organise something, but now I'm aware, there's always the chance to put something in the diary for next year. You did a service.

Me, I shall be watching my daughter play in the quarterfinals of the County Cup, in what looks like being the middle of Storm Freya, so that should be interesting. And cold.

In that case you can step it up a level, every 6 months I buy a product called Coopex.
It is a powder that you mix with water and spray with a pump pressure weed killer spray type thing.
You spray it around the perimeter of your house, in the doorsways and everywhere.
Don’t let pets near it when it is wet as it will make them sick, once it has dried it is ok.
It doesn’t kill the creatures, they just won’t cross it.
Every 6 months I do the following routine :- I put down about 12 of the plastic cockroach baits in various locations around the house, let off insect killing bombs in the 3 roof spaces, throw rodent bait bags into each of the 3 roof spaces and Coopex around the outside of the house.
As a result I don’t get any problems and no infestations, I do live in the hills so have to do this to keep everything at bay.
Had to put up with all sorts of invaders when I first got here, so had to wise up.

Hehe, very good.
Mind you there are so many varieties of religion available here, I have never seen anything like it.
57 varieties like Heinz.............though that might be a religion somewhere.

You may want to reword this, given the context of this thread.

Thanks for the advice. It’s only ants that seem to be a problem. Haven’t seen anything else freaky apart from one huge spider!

I’ve put Rid under the bathroom sinks today and the little blighters are lapping it up so hopefully will take it back to the nest.

I’m beginning to think the whole house is on one giant ant nest
