@XReaganX "I hate ants." You say to the couple across your desk. "And I'm sure you do too."
They nod in agreement as they thumb through the catalog you gave them.
"Fortunately, we offer a number of safe and effective ways to deal with them. Tell me, when do you most hate to see ants?"
"Well," the lady begins, "When we're playing outside with the kids they just ruin the whole day."
"Eexactly. And you don't want your kids getting bitten." You pull out a new pamplet. "I recommend the Home Shield 500."
They excitedly look over the pictures as you continue. "Four automated defense turrets can be placed around your home. A state of the art targeting system is guided by a combination of GPS and sensors that can detect ant pheromones from up to a mile away and fire an armor piercing missile at the pests."
The man looks impressed. "The same kind the army uses against tanks?" He asks.
"The very same. I have this for my house. It can also target termites."
The woman speaks up again. "Ever since the government made them fifty feet tall, it's been terrible."
"It was necessary to stop the communists, hunney." The man chimes in.
You cut in. "I'm sure no one expected they could breed so fast, or breath fire. What's important now is that you and your family are protected by guided missiles and plasma cutting beams. Now, let's talk warranty."
