which is fun when ants decide to build a hill inside the strawberry planter and weaken the wood. i maaaaay be able to salvage this but i'd rather blowtorch it since they swarmed my feet when their hill fell out the bottom
it was not enough to be swarmed by ants i also got followed by the big boy

Last year I tried a reverse ant trap of sorts around my house. I was tired of having carpenter ants invading and have learned through trial and massive error not to destroy their nest, lest you make them relocate closer. So, I encouraged them with actual ant bait which I know works. I just put the humming bird nectar fluid in tiny containers and place those away from my house. It worked last year; they did not break the entrance of the house.
I don't know what kind of ants you are dealing with. If it is fire ants, I don't know if that will work. The sugar ants (tiny) wake up first and invade the garage in spring, but then are basically gone by summer as a pest. Its the carpenter ants that are the destructive ones that invade and move their nests around here. I'm going to do the same thing this year because giving them a source of food and water away from the house is easier than trying to destroy the indestructible.

My favorite moth I've seen is the mammoth moth, Cecropia moth (Hyalophora cecropia). Scared the shit out of a black coworker of mine who thought it was a bat when it flew into our shop and fell from dust on it's wings ages ago lol
i'm rather fond of moths... can't find the pic i took of one hanging out on my hand or the giant one the size of my palm i found. i like identifying the local ones tho, n they're always pretty
i think my favs are these pink lemonade ones (they're officially called rosy maple, but i never remember the name)
