i hate red ants... they literally destroyed my hard drive and i had to wait for a month before i got my laptop back. it was really difficult time for me to do my work properly. i have to borrow my brother's computer or use one of the computers that my office has... but of course, it didnt help much. now i am a certified ant-hater of red mutated ants...grr...

hi lilaclady... i am talking about real and breathing red ants. it's not uncommon here in our place. i have friends who had swarms of red ants attacking their laptop and printers. one even had affected the video card of the laptop that repairing it would cost nearly the price of a new one. even my friend's motherboard of her printer were literally eaten by ants. so now, i keep in my laptop in its back immediately after it cools down and dont leave it on my study table where red ants had attacked it before....

it's the foam inside the hard drive. that's what the technician told me. and of course, the wires and cables

hi shiloh!
oh yeah, that is my pet hate in the house, that is, especially with cockroaches and mice. do you know that red ants are all over our house? they have eaten up holes in my husband's clothes, our food, chocolates, candies, soap, and even cotton buds!!! grrrr!!! i hate them! i feel goose bumps whenever i see them piling up. anyway, i spray then with whatever i can get my hands on..
take care always! :-)
