New building infestation

Remember, too, how such things can be inadvertently "imported" by tenants...
 
Several large buildings on University Avenue south of College have termites, according to my source at one of the pest control companies.
 
in some places, they have these things called sandhogs. they dig tunnels so big that you can actually drive a train through them. i think that's how they got the idea for the subway.
 
Sounds like a normal thing.

My house is 1.5 yr old. Last year around this time, we got a lot of "flies" in our new home as well.

Then I found out the reason. When they built the house during the falls, the insects/flies/whatever laid their eggs under the ground. So in spring time, well, they can't just let the flowers taking all the blooming credits!
 
My wood frame house is 99.5 years old, and is still standing despite being nibbled by carpenter ants and termites and goodness knows what else over the years. Large doses of highly toxic chemicals do wonders for just about any insect problem.

I wonder what would happen if someone snorted up some of Keith - after he'd been torched?
 
Yes, because PR hacks always, always tell the truth.
 
Carpet beetles maybe? I occasionally see these around our place. They're small black things that in small numbers are harmless. But if you have a lot of them their larvae can get into food, cereal, flour etc. They can also cause damage to fabrics as well.
 
Ewww ... Thank God I'm having my carpets replaced with hardwood floors.

My partner was cremated. He wanted me to keep his ashes, which I'm happy to do. They're just ashes after all, not Ambrose. Still, much as I'm given to occasional new thrills - as any jaded old queen is from time to time - I'd have to think twice before snorting him.
