I went to check on my server closet to see what would need to be reconfigured when I upgrade to fios. Keep in mind that this is the first time I have actually looked at the servers in about two weeks. Upon opening the door I noted some movement on my spare cable modem. “Oh %$@$” I thought to myself, since that is right next to my 900 watt UPS that powers my servers. Upon closer inspection I found that the cable modem was in fact full of eggs and ants. It’s amazing nothing had failed at this point. I quickly grabbed some ant posion and laid it in several inches in front of my ups as a peremeter, so hopefully they will leave the UPS alone.
