Pesky pharaoh ants!

They're so tiny they can climb through the threads of a tightly closed jar lid to get to the sugar! 🐜

I`ve always called those sugar ants and yes they are a pain. Those commercial ant traps are useless.

@Degbeme I might have to upgrade to a tupperware container.

@CleverGirl That or a mason jar with the heavy rubber seal.

No sugar in the house, no problem. Just don't leave any foods on the countertop or anywhere else.

@CleverGirl Eat it at someone else's place and let them take care of that problem. You are safe and you had your boost of sugar 😉

@Stephie I can outsmart the ants. A change of containers!

@CleverGirl Yes, they need to be airtight and sealed as good as possible. Just make sure you don't break your nails trying to open those 🤬☠ containers!

place a couple corn chips in the sugar and pack a paper towel into the lid. The corn chips keep the sugar dry, and the compressed fibers along the edge of the jar are not as easy to get through.
