Dr. Jack,
Having fought the ant wars at my trailer about 50 feet away from your ship, I was only able to eliminate them (for the time being) by throwing a (thin) layer of Diazanon around the areas where they entered. Those being the 5 ground contact points (2 wheels, one front wheel and the two rear jacks. They have plagued my trailer since June. I had used many things against them before but only the Diazanon worked. Plus I sprayed the weeds around the trailer with Roundup to prevent other access means. Terribly politically incorrect, but hey, it's them or me. I believe they are attracted not to any food I've left in the cockpit (although that has happened before), but to the condensation around the trailer upper half lid. The bug wars never end. A couple months ago, I flew the glider from Tonopah to Santa Barbara, stayed for three days, then flew back to Hollister. Upon lifting my seat cushion to wipe out the dust, there sat one of those 4 inch long nasty semi-scorpion Tonopah spiders. After killing it, I flashed on the ending scene of the first "Alien" when Sigourney Weaver though she was rid of the monster, only to find it was traveling with her. Ack! But I digress.........
