I'm not looking for a solution to the problem - just airing my disgust! Many solutions have been offered through the FML in the past. I've had ferrets in this home since I've owned it - (16 years). They have always been in the same room and the cage in the same area. I have always had an ant problem in my kitchen (one counter area) and nip it in the bud early. But I never until this week had any in the ferrets' room. Damn ants!! Curious - wonder if it's because I always used a water bottle and am now using a crock dish?? [Posted in FML issue 5228]
