Picture the scene.
I am hearing noises coming from the window, weird crunchy type noises. On investigation I find flying ants building a nest on the outside of my window.
The best course of action, I've found, with ants nests is boiling water, kills them instantly. So I boil the kettle. So far so good.
I take the boiling water pour it over the ants there, then notice a few below the window, I look under the sill and there's a few under there... I know what I'll do, open the kettle lid, and on three... throw it at them!
Stupid, stupid, effing bloody, stupid idea!
The water hits them... success!
The water hits the wall and has nowhere to go back up... it hits the underside of the window sill... and then has to come back out... right over my hand!
Which leads to me now sitting here with a piece of kitchin roll sellotaped to my hand as I have a severe lack of anything bar plasters (band aid's for you yanks ) for small hand wounds...
At least the savlon felt nice...
So word of wise to others... don't do that!
