limbo Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 Hi guys, don't seem to have much luck with electrical tools in the LOS, since on a regular base they seem to be invaded by some critters. Now it seems that I have picked up a colony of ants in my notebook. Any advice on how to get rid of them and to keep them out in the future and any potential risk for any damage to my notebook right now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nervous_Dog Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 I get this problem in Thailand all the ime. They DO eat the cable insulators so it can be a problem. I find hey like the notebook because either it warm, or I dribble food ino ea when typing and eating. I sprayed the surface of mine and the botom, seemed to work.

limbo Posted December 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 At least I can count on fellow Dutchies, thanks guys!! Hi Dog, sounds like a good idea, you didn't spray the actual keyboard though, did you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous_Dog Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 I did ! But more importanly I spray under the notebook, it doesnt wear off that quick I think I actually had a colony inside at one time! I also sprayed a dog and the baby - but I'll put that into Family Life section DOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlton68 Posted December 10, 2004 Report Share Posted December 10, 2004 Hey, it's not a bug, it's a feature!! If you take out the ants your computer stops working. Reminds me of the computer the wizzards invented in Terry Pratchetts discworld novels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
