Hi Jazzi, I don't panic but I hate ants!Re: Do you panic if you find an ant indoors?
In California we have some little red ants that are attracted to food, especially pet food. If you squash the ants they have a very strong smell. I don't know how to describe it except it's sort of smells like turpentine or a chemical. What I've found effective is to vacuum or otherwise remove the ants and then find their trail and wipe it down with straight vinegar. This seems to throw off the scent of their trail and really helps, especially if you can find where they're coming in and really wipe down that area.
