No, the golden fleece it's suggested was a reference to the use of untreated fleeces to capture gold particles.

Jason's story was also supposed to be based on myths grafted onto tales of a real marine trading route.

Not a fan of the classics then?

Tell em to stop hijacking my thread, Jdr

I'm always saying to my wife 'That's what happens when you lack a classical education!'

Stop hijacking her thread, everyone knows ants don`t have fleeces.

Didn't you read bills post?


Ants are fascinating creatures.

Can't you even spell my name right?

Do you always talk to yourself billllll?

How else would I guarantee intelligent discourse?

Dunno, but if you have one, see a doctor

The ants are so much smaller here though so sealing up everywhere is so difficult. We have used so much silicone in this house that I really wish that we had bought shares in the factory that produces it.

Can you remove the architraves? Then seal behind them using a filler rather than silicone?

As I say, the little sods usually come in for a reason, No nest will waste resources sending in workers to search with no returns.

Food hygiene is vital to discourage them. When we get a problem, I can always trace it back to something I have spilled and failed to clean up properly.

A blast of ant spray for indoors over the point of entry eg thru an open window, and the problem is solved till the next time I forget.

Also, there's a puma tile adhesive that makes a great filler. It's grey or white and comes as a dry powder in 1 kilo sacks. I use that all the time. It fills well, sands down easily, is strong and flexible and will survive outside undamaged, even without being painted over. LOADS cheaper than silicone.

LOL Us too!

They are not just in the kitchen though, the little blighters even come in through the bedroom skirting tiles and there isnt never any food upstairs!

You always get a few scouts. If they are coming thru en mass anywhere like you say, I just spray and wipe over the area. That usually discourages them!
