Good day everyone! Help. We moved under NG to a new apartment, and here are hordes of insects, for the forum I took a picture and it seems like ants, but... who knows who it is and most importantly HOW to get rid of it? There are no forces, it seems that they crawl on the legs and hands, and it is unpleasant that they forgive all products, and maybe even eat them...brrrr...there is only one in the photo, but there are always crowds of them...And also noticed that at first they are transparent...

It depends on how you plan to fight. You can poison them with poisoned baits - only sweet gels that need to be diluted with water will do. And you can spray the surface with insecticides of contact action, running on which ants will die. Take preparations based on pyrethroids-it will help in any case, these ants are not armor-piercing. You can even take an aerosol can if you have smooth non-absorbent surfaces, just make sure that the total amount of active substances indicated in the preparation is not less than 0.3%. The main thing is that in those places where most of them go, there you need to apply the product. And then do not wipe or wash these places for at least 2 weeks. But first you need to decide which of these methods you want to fight. Yes, it has-this is an imported tropical species, which is still rarely found in Russia.
