the invasion of the ants

i ve a big problem in the kitchen - the big army of ants that seem to invade and infest every single edible thing. in the past, i resorted to keeping my food in the oven. but that didnt seem to work with these verocious small pests. oh no, they climbed my oven and successfully ravaged my homemade white bread! arghh!! i feel like a madwoman now, i've been reading some articles on how to destroy the ants. just pray that i can demolish the whole colony because they're really driving me up the wall!
