malumbu Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Great, something to distract me from my overall mailaise.Apparently a good thing, but I shouldn't have turned the heap as I'll now wake with loads of little bite spots. Makes a change from the mossie's I suppose.http://www.gardenersworld.com/forum/thread/?threadId=59032 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/114870-flying-ants-in-my-compost-heap/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elphinstone's Army Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 They are everywhere, crawling out from cracks in the pavement, all over the garden, the cat, my hair, but no thunder bugs as yet, which means we just have to tolerate the humidity a little longer and stay away from the compost. Anyone here remember Fraggle Rock? with Mr McKay? didn't they have a surreal singing compost heap? that would cheer you up malumbu, a little anarchic mischief making muppet fashion?

malumbu Posted July 19, 2016 Author Share Posted July 19, 2016 Well you live and learn: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/gardening/11779941/Flying-ants-everything-you-need-to-know.htmlObviously warm and dry beards, with no predators (do you keep anything else in there titch) are particularly attractive.
