Invasion: You think it'd be impossible to share your house with your wife, your daughter, and fifty million or so Argentine ants. And you would be correct.
One of my favorite Italo Calvino stories, "The Argentine Ant", is about just this type of situation. It's a great, horrible read.

Good ending. I hope that kid isn't thrown into lockup because of it.

AAAAAAH!

I am stoopid, so I went to youtube (of all ill-advised places to go) to see if I could find any argentine ants, and came up with ants eating (dead) gecko. At the end of that I was half expecting them to make the bones dance or something. Now I'm off to have some really scary dreams.
