Anybody have them? You have to look hard to see them.

In Ohio we call them Pith anth.
Ghost Ants is the real name, they will put baits all around, but when it rains you will see them. Just put the baits where the kitties won’t go, behind furniture, or behind stuff in counters, they are attracted to water, and to electrical appliances don’t forget the garage either. They will find a way to enter your house, so nothing will stop them, they will ingest the bait and take to their nest and all will be dead, but don’t fret, generation 2 will follow.
If you don’t have a bug service, get “Terro” ant bite sold at Lowe’s, Publix, Winn Dixie and other outlets. Once the baits are down ants will disappear in about 2 weeks, baits are good for 90 days.
