Strange insect trouble

[Chirimoya]

hey Chiri,
that's b/c you are one of us luckies who live on the beach front,
nothing will ever fly in from the ocean but those few stormies, and those we can handle without a vacuum cleaner, he he

We're not beachfront, though - as the crow flies we might have been nearer the sea when we lived in Santo Domingo.

Mike,
They might very well be a different species. I'm not really sure one way or the other. I haven't actually followed the progression of how they develop, so it might be a completely different species of ant all together.

It would be interesting to find out for sure, but I don't have the patience, so I just try to get rid of anything that looks like an ant, or other potential wood-eating insect.

Whatever they are I don't like them. They drive me to drink.

David,
that's a reason to love 'em, everything has it's positive side, lol.
