Now the big problem starts , there are n number of red ants roaming in the premises, as I had young child and infant there is bound to be food on the floor, when we returned late night after exploring my room was swarming with red ants , I knocked multiple times at the owners door, also rang the bell outside but he didn't even come out, was clearing the ants with a broom and towels for 1.5 hrs, some 9.2 rated cottage I booked.
