Ants are invading my room

No. This is not a joke.
No. There is no food or trash or remains or dust or anything else for them to want to get at.

For the second night in a row, ants are coming, unbeckoned, undesired, undeserved into my room. They are entering through the cracks around the window.

Last night I fought them off and thought I got rid of all of them. I erased their trail, sprayed it with chemicals and checked it this morning... no more ants. I thought I was safe.

BUT NO. After coming back from watching (at a friend's house) the Mavs/Spurs game (which my only regret regarding the grame is that I won't get free coffee from Valero tomorrow), putting on the Dodger game (MLB TV), and climbing into bed, I started to feel like I was getting bit. I was. The bed was full of ants. The ants were marching in (but with no hurrah's and certainly more than 100 by 100, let alone 1 by 1).

I wouldn't mind as much if they were going after food I left out -- my "reward" for leaving things out. Or if they were going to another part of my room (ie corner, dvds, computer, you name it --- anything but where they are headed) instead of my bed.

As a single guy, I look forward to someday sharing my bed with someone-my future wife. I don't know who she is right now, but I assure anyone reading this that, regardless of any other redeeming qualities (including millions of dollars) that six-legged beings need not apply. Certainly not those who come unbidden and biting.

I have spent the last hour or so trying to rid my room yet again from the ants. Windex, Lysol with bleach, squishing them with paper towels, squishing them with my bare hands, and even burning them with a BIC cigarrette lighter. {No I don't smoke--the lighter is useful for cleaning up uniforms that have stray strings}

After maintaining watch for the last 30 minutes to see if no others invade the bed (they can have the floor tonight... I'm buying Raid tomorrow... I just want to sleep without being crawled on and bit) I decided to rant and rave about the situation in this post and then check to see if any have returned.

Hopefully they have learned the lesson by seeing the other ants nearby who were burnt to a crisp and decide to leave the area. Otherwise this will be a very long night.

At least the Dodgers won and are now tied for first place in the NL West.
