If you live in the southern US, you know about Fire Ants. What you may not know is that Fire Ants LOVE electric currents. Luckily I've only had to deal with a small infestation in an NES before, and that was enough for me. I have seen large mounds built onto the side of high-voltage transformers on the ground though. I feel sorry for the repair guy who has to dig into that...
Best solution to get rid of ants is baking soda. They hate the smell so much they end up retreating. Windex or any spray cleaner is a temp solution they still keep coming back.
Dude its just dumb ants, big fucking deal... Call me when your fridge dies while you're out and all the rotten meat insides turns into billions of maggots
