...not just one by one here. And I should add that they are the "biting and devouring everything in their path" ants. It's that time of year again. Every black speck you see in this picture is an ant.
There were definitely some making trails, but mostly they were completely covering our veranda floor, walls and ceiling (this picture isn't even an 10th of the area they were covering). Thankfully we spotted them before they came into the main part of our house, and were able to empty 3 cans of bug spray to discourage them from advancing any further.
I snapped this picture of Nathan in mid stomp and spray. He had to keep moving or they would start crawling up his legs and biting. Normally this happens in the middle of the night when it's so much harder to combat an army like this, but we were fortunate this time to catch them in the morning.

I remember running across a huge trail of ants just to get down the road...with Nathan saying, "don't stop, don't stop, don't stop!"
They're just coming because you guys are so sweet :-0
