In what sounds like a really low-budget horror film, voracious swarming ants that apparently arrived in Texas aboard a cargo ship are invading homes and yards across the Houston area, shorting out electrical boxes and messing up computers.
And--what may be an ominous sign for the Bored--they're called "crazy rasberry ants".

No no no.
I already had the weird rain shrimp bugs show up at my house last year.
And adolescent rats.
I do not need another thing to call exterminators about, Especially, when the exterminators aren't sure how to kill those suckers.
So far, I have not seen any crazy ants.

Everybody got an eccentric aunt, that doesn't mean you can call an exterminator.

Arsenic and Old Lace?

But now a signature line to make Bix's head explode!

Raspberry ants in Texas, and Goliath beetles in Philadelphia, sent in a package marked as "toys, gifts and jellies".
