+HikingMan Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 Could have used an ant removal device this week, one cache was crawling with them. Quote
+Team GPSaxophone Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 Bring some peanut butter and some boric acid. That'll take care of them Quote
+woof n lulu Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 Bring some peanut butter and some boric acid. That'll take care of them Oh the Horror...the horror... Quote
+Kitch Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 oh I get it now... I was supposed to make up something to bring to a cache site that is weird. Like a roll of TP ...just incase I need it. Quote

+Dan-oh Posted May 15, 2004 Posted May 15, 2004 I usually take pliers, and a set of 30 weight ball bearings and about 10 quarts of antifreeze, preferably Prestone. Quote
+Red Clover Posted May 15, 2004 Posted May 15, 2004 Bring some peanut butter and some boric acid. That'll take care of them I thought it was mint jelly and boric.. Quote

It's not like they're kittens or something pleasant I never realized how prone to spontaneous combustion ants where till I started watching them real close w/ the magnifying glass. Quote
+CYBret Posted May 15, 2004 Posted May 15, 2004 Ugh...found a cache 2 years ago that someone had left fish food in...FISH FOOD, fer cryin' out loud! Not only had they left it, they left it opened! Even though the cache was an ammo can, it was crawling with tiny ants. I emptied it out and cleaned it up as best I could (threw the fish food in a nearby pond). Man...the stink....pheww! Bret Quote
+TEAM 360 Posted May 15, 2004 Posted May 15, 2004 I ALWAYS take something to write with, usually a fine point permanent marker, so I can still write on a wet logsheet. I also have a "geocaching pack" in the trunk of my car, with assorted caches (ready for placing), a few different colors of spray paint, ziploc baggies and a couple of generic emergency replacement logsheets, just in case.....

+LETaylor Posted May 15, 2004 Posted May 15, 2004 I carry ze code book for ze resistance fighters, a hunk of cheeze and some fine milk! Quote
+Melrose Plant Posted May 15, 2004 Posted May 15, 2004 I have taken to carrying a "cache repair kit," which includes, within a replacement Rubbermaid container, assorted sizes of ziplock freezer bags, spare logbooks, pens and pencils, and real towels for drying out caches. I also carry a couple of trash bags. However, I don't think I carry anything which would get rid of an infestation. . . Quote
+Night Stalker Posted May 15, 2004 Posted May 15, 2004 After a recent visit to a cache site I had to go to Walmart and buy a can of Wasp spray. A Wasps nest had taken root at the cache. After getting stung and killing all those nasty varmints I found that the cache had been plundered anyway Quote
+PandyBat Posted May 15, 2004 Posted May 15, 2004 Ants I can handle, it's snakes that get to me. Found a cache with a snake curled up on top of it after lifting the log off of the container. That'll squelch your excitement of finding the cache real quick. Quote
