My inhospitable relationship to Ants- I detest ants. Back when in high school, I was living in my parent’s house and we had an infestation of ants that kept recurring for about a year. They had gotten into everything, every snack or loaf of bread or condiment in the pantry was swarming with ants. We must have completely cleared in out ten times throwing out tonnes of otherwise perfectly good food.
Occasionally when I was lying on our sofa and felt a sensation on the back of my legs and it was already too late, they were all over me. I am the kind of person who feels immediately compelled to wash all my cloths and have a shower when this happens, otherwise I will be perpetually afraid I still have ants all over me for the rest of the day. I hate ants, they bring me great paranoia. I never want to live in fear of constantly having to be aware of ants all around me again. Patrick Culbert 21721005
