Ants

Usually, if not near the house, they aren't a problem. If they start

They can be pretty devastating if you put down grass seed.
We put some down a couple of years ago,
and when we looked at the hoped-for lawn next morning
there were literally thousands of ants,
each carrying off one grass seed on its back.
It was like a scene from Antz.
I guess we could have used seed that ants don't like?
