>Finding a weird lone single ant in Feb in the house

????? What the fuck?

@coolboymew@shitposter.world saw one recently

@anemone It's like -20C here though, and has been for a few weeks, so that's bad fucking news. I don't think lone ants can survive randomly

So big chances there's a colony around, or they're from the basement and coming from the small earth holes from under the concrete wall and one of them woke up for whatever reasons, but I haven't seen any since like July-August at least so that's fucking weird

@coolboymew @anemone Usually queen ants will do that and it's a sign you may have an infestation come spring. You may want to lay some ant bait traps down you got a chance to. I had an issue last spring and had to put some liquid ant bait on my stove and I literally saw 100's of them go for it and then a day or two later no more ants.

@ooignignoktoo @anemone hmmm I wonder if it's a good idea to put it in the basement, which is most likely where they are anyways. I might have one left
