You should build your hut higher off the ground. :p It's probably better that they are in the computer room anyway because, sleeping.
Excellent point. I sprayed them with ant spray and then vacuumed them. So hopefully they go away now.

Hell yeah, they do. They have formic acid and it eats away your skin a bit.
That some how makes it seem a lot worse :eek:

The only hit I have assigned to me is the one I am trying to work on...and I get this! What am I missing here? I'm new but seriously, one hit is too many for me to still be fair?

"You have reached the maxiymum number of unsubmitted assignments. So we are fair to other workers, we stop you doing too much for us at once. You can complete the other assignment(s) and refresh this page, or simply return this hit."​

Have you ever done any hits for them? If not it might just be an error in their coding.

I always have to take it there.
Thye do this two or three times a year. I have no idea where they come from so I don't know where to put the borax. Do I just sprinkle it everywhere?
I walk the perimeter of the house with it (like some people like to do with salt/evil spirits, lol). Then I put it behind the backsplash in the kitchen, windowsills. try and track down where they're coming from.

Thanks!! I'll have to go buy some and do that!

Start with your toes, since that's what they're attracted to.
That's... logical.

I also will keep a garlic bulb or 2 on the kitchen counters. That seems to repel them. They're all wrapped up in their papers so they don't stink (to me, anyway.)

in actuality, perimeters, anywhere you store food on the edges, along your sink, just be careful. They're coming from outside somewhere.
