If you’ve ever had an ant problem, you know how frustrating it is to get it under control. But when this man realized the poison traps he set out for them weren’t working, he decided to get creative and gentrify the little ant neighborhood.
The ants won't go in the poison traps so I made some modifications to lure them in pic.twitter.com/9xMFrWlbhK

That’s right — Pat Tobin cleverly disguised the poison traps as hip, cool stores to fit certain demographics in hopes of getting the ants to drop in.
For those ants looking for a nice, chill night.

For those ants just looking to maintain a healthy lifestyle (sorry, ants).

For those ants trying to get a jumpstart on life.

For the ants just looking to have a good time.

Of course, people thought the whole thing was pretty wild.

I texted this to my brother and he only saw the first one and responded "It worked in Beetlejuice"

We kinda wish we could visit these stores — that is, if they were actual stores and not potentially lethal poison traps.
Sure, it's 5 Ant St. in Antville

You know, screw it, maybe I’ll give it a try, too.
