So I poured my beer, filled up the tub, sprinkled in the aromatherapy salts and got in. Now, I normally don't dig the Jacuzzi jets. I usually just take a regular bath without them. But tonight I felt like it, so I turned them on. And then my relaxing bath became a BUG INFESTED BATH!

Yeah. Effing disgusting, right? See all those black specks? Ants. TONS of them.
And this was the baby roach who came along with the ants for the bath...

So, I guess I've learned that if the bath jets haven't been used for over four months, I may want to run them and then wash the tub FIRST next time before getting in.
EW!

Yuck! I once turned on my iron and minutes later, hundreds of ants came crawling out. They love the moisture. Ick....
Right like YOU never crashed a jacuzzi party before.
Gosh I feel bad for you guys-you have such tub issues :)
BTW if you would like to check out the site-lots of new things have been added-Do you like Pumpkin, real pumpkin-this morning I made my 1st all natural Pumpkin Custard soapopz (Soap shaped like a popsicle) Or an a naturally scented strawberry soap popsicle with seeds. Using all natural soap.
Have a great day, Tammy
I'm very glad you turned the jets on before you got in. If you were in the tub when that happened it would be like something from a horror movie!
This is a waking nightmare! Imagine if you had opted for a bubble bath and hadn't seen them! Until you got out and they were all over you!
no, dude. i was IN the tub when it happened.
needless to say, i showered like crazy right after that.
We always have ants but this summer we had a terrible problem with them. For the first time ever they were in our master bathroom which is on the second floor. They got up there by way of the smoke detector in our daughter's room, which in on the lower level. We only found out they were using the smoke detector as a lay-over station when the frigging thing kept going off in the middle of the night. Since it was hardwired into our panel they were able to just walk along through the cavity between the ceiling/floor and filled the cover to the smoke detector up to the brim. I suppose they died in there from the radioactive fallout of the little nuclear device in smoke detectors (or whatever that thing is). But anyhow, we don't have a tub with jets. Our tub is an old fashioned cast iron soaker tub we snarfed from an old house undergoing renovations. When the ants were at their worst our tub was littered with them. Big ant, little ant, ants who climb on rocks. Fat ants, skinny ants, even ants with chicken pox
love bath=tubs, Topanga's bath-tub.
The tub ants love to infest!
Oh my! Ya I read it again and realized you were in there. Holy crap that is awful! I heard the ants in Hawaii can get pretty bad, but that is just nuts!
Oscar has a pet spider called Spidey, that lives in our bathroom...
Last night he asked me: "Daddy, why doesn't Spidey move any more...is he sad?"
I looked at the dessicated husk of Spidey..."No Sunshine, he just taking a nap..."
In Australia it is second nature to just check everything... they lurk everywhere.
Is this your home in Hawaii? because, if so.this is so Hawaii! When I went to college in Laie, I came home one day to maggots! Also, your blog is refreshing and I'm glad you talk about farts and $140 Emmy outfits.
