If You Ever Wonder What Happened To Your Missing Cookies, This May Have Happened…

@AbbeyRhode Liverpool ants

@saragoodtimes THAT was bad! 🤭

@FreeSpirit1 not in the house though

@Sojournersoul in a tin box would be the safest way to store them, these little boogers can eat through a cardboard box

@cherokeepatti Yes they can. Have a cookie jar.

@cherokeepatti They can even get up under the lids of tin.
My parents house always had bad ant problems.
When I find a heaping pile of them outside, I take a tea ketttle full boiling water and pour it on the nest and then I get the enjoyment of watching the song birds swarm in and eat up all the dead ants.

@sladejr I don’t think they share

@Azlotto A little spritz of orange oil spray takes car of it quickly

@cherokeepatti I didn't have any orange oil...I used a mixture of syrup and borax.

@Azlotto orange oil kills them immediately, dissolves their exoskeleton
