I hate that I have to live somewhere ant infested

I live in a really old building that is ground level. It unfortunately has an ant problem. I feel like being poor means having to live in the shittiest of places sometimes. 🙃

It's such a small, dumb complaint compared to a lot of bigger things. I could be homeless, I could have a worse bug problem (such as bed bugs, shudder). But no, I'm complaining about ants 😂😅

I'm just pissed I pulled one off my eye after it bit me. Not even joking.

My fault because I'm slowly working on furniture, and my bed is still on the floor. I bought other furniture such as a dresser, hampers, and clothing organizers before getting to a bed frame. I just didn't know the ant problem would be so bad.

They're mostly in the bathroom and my room, for some reason. Both rooms are spotless and don't get eaten in, so I have no idea why. I've laid down traps, I regularly put baking soda on my carpet. I vacuum daily. Today, I even bought some ultrasonic plug in device that makes noise ants hate. Sounds crazy, but I'm just so sick of them.

There's 2 toddlers in the apartment (mine and my roommates kid), so we can't use straight up borax on them :( . Although the ant traps do actually have borax mixed in the ant food.

The last place I lived at was old too, and had a roach problem. It just feels like I'm never going to live somewhere comfortable, that isn't old, beat up, and full of problems... until I finish school.

I guess I should just be grateful my rent is low and things are going alright.
