    Default If only I had a trout lake in my backyard...

    Went out on the patio this morning and it was covered in flying ants!

    Anybody else encounter this?

    With a backyard that's only 30' x 60' I think it would be tough to have a good population...

    Sometimes we get a lot of PMDs on the sliding door screen as well.

    Before the corp of engineers "improved " Milton , we would go in as soon as Henness Pass road opened . Trying to catch the flying ants hatch . In those days lots of big Browns lived there and were eager to please ! Mike

    I have never had flying ants 10 miles to the south of you. I have had a lot of ants but they fortunately went away. Maybe they are termites. That would be bad. I used to have those also. Now I just have a lot of cockroaches and crane flies.

    They’re still there. Maybe they get wise to the people using the same stuff every season. Browns get wiser as they get bigger.
