You let the littlest things bother you.
In CR, ants were everywhere, all over the kitchen counter, etc.. I mean everywhere.
You just get used to them and perhaps they add a bit of protein.
Anything you don't want covered with ants goes in the fridge,
Army ants move into the house for about 24 hours. You move out for that period. They eliminate everything edible in the house. That would be roaches and other insects, reptiles, etc..
Thanks for the hug. I think only one of the eggs was developing so not a huge loss.
Because they are the most nutritious part of any animal.
