Well, we sarted to see only a couple ants every few days, but i pulled the dishwasher out and spread the drione anyway. A week later, I started seeing more ants, a few each morning, and a couple throughout the day. I believe I think Isaw ONE carrying an egg, but I could not be sure because the egg looked smaller than eggs I've seen before.

I only see the ants in one generalized area, north side of the house, along the kitchen. Since they are still here, should I still wait, or is it time to call an exterminator? If I call and exterminator, what should be done(chemicals, etc.)?

Thanks, Chris
