QUOTE(MobiusVyper @ Aug 11 2006, 09:44 PM) Red-electronic-loving-ants outbreak. Maybe the electric/magnetic fields are attracting them. Do they crawl around with the devices on or off? Or both? you are totally right, red ants love these electronic things.QUOTE(sniper msia @ Aug 11 2006, 09:50 PM) They are around even when the electronic stuff is on and off. At first, i thought it was the heat that attracted them. But at one moment, the ants infestation became even more when the electronic stuf was off. Really disgusting even to look at them. Uggh. om... this is so disgusting...The good thing is, if there are people using the unit (like my laptop) all the time, they tend to go away. If they have planted some eggs with the queen around, they will move the eggs out too. Talking about this even makes me feel disgusted.  |

Well one way to rid your problem is hust by freezing the critters.
Look at it this way put your 360 in a cold location and ants will freeze or get too cold and leave the area. Just a suggestion hopefully freezing your 360 wont cause any long time harm... |

Many people still think its the discharge or (fan smell etc) of the 360 that attracts them.....

The recipe to combat evil red ants,
Clove Cili Kering Lada Grind all of these materials. The powder is to be soaked in the water. Toss the, you need the water only. You need brush to apply this mixture where those ants will crawl. Voila no semut at all. Wash your hand after that if not, pedas ooooo. This is temporary measure until you find a way to kill all of the ants.

QUOTE(sniper msia @ Aug 11 2006, 09:32 PM) May i know where do you live? Must be an advanced race of ants who have the craving for technology...heheheNow my laptop is even getting those red ants all over. Everyday have to spray insect killer. Perhaps this is a new breed of red ants in malaysia that likes to breed/move-around electronic stuffs. |

currently the evil red ants never make any appearance. I know sooner or later they will be back, just hope not. Now, fear for 3 Red Light of Death (ketuk kayu...)
