Down in Houston, crazy ants are taking over! Technically, the red-brown creatures are called "crazy rasberry ants," not because rasberries are red-brown, because rasberries don't exist, but because one of the exterminators who warred against the ants was named Tom Rasberry. There are millions and millions of the tiny (one-eighth of an inch long), speedy ants attacking five Texas counties: they seem attracted to electrical boxes and computers, and swarms of them can cause shorts and malfunctions.
How would you solve Houston's ant infestation?
