I live in rural NC. This is the worst I have ever seen them.

They are tiny ants. At least they aren't giant red ants bot they sure are annoying. I have to keep my sugar in the refrigerator.

AAARG!

Blow the vents out out afterwards to clear out the dead ants.

That's what I did to a laptop that had one of those little pissant nests in it.
