Yuck!!!! Black ants!!!

I went into the bathroom this morning and there were about 10 of them in my sink!!! I freaked out!!! They were crawling in from the bathroom sink. I live on a second floor apartment. Is this normal? Should I call an exterminator?

I have been finding them in my living room walking on my couch!! I was just asking myself the same question!

I get them in my bathroom. They seem to come out in the spring time. I just spray, or use those ant traps.
If they still come around I would then call.

we've gotten them too recently. It was definitely the change in weather that brought them on. There were many around our windowsill, I saw some in the bathroom and even in the kitchen which REALLY annoyed me since I'm ANAL about keeping the kitchen clean!!

We used the traps and sprayed and it seemed to help a lot. I see a few ants here and there but its MUCh better than it was last week

Now that its warmer, Im noticing more
Just keep wiping down the counters (lysol wipes or whatever 'bleachy' cleaning product you have) and also leave no food around or in sink.

We've had them too lately. Today DH came home from work to find them in the cats bowl. The cat was so upset he got sick all over the place.

We saw a few ants too! I bought the traps and they are working. Maybe they come out this time of year.
