The Cinnamon Experiment

May 8th, 2009

A couple weeks ago I was on the phone with my friend Bridget who was telling me all about the ants coming in through the electrical outlets in her house in NJ. Being that was April, and not even that hot yet I was a little surprised. She said they called an exterminator and that 9 out of 10 calls they had were for ants. What the heck! 

I pat myself on the back for living in the big cit-ay and not having to deal with eew ants and eew exterminators until that Saturday afternoon when I got home from yoga and open the bedroom windows wide to celebrate the arrival of an early summer.

All of a sudden I notice some ants on the windowsill, the BIG KIND. Ugh, of course we have no form of ant repellant in the house so I had to shut the window and it seemed to slow down. But it was H-O-T. I was thinking of going out to the store and buying some nasty smelly bug killing product when I randomly found this

Ok, I’ll bite…
