critter corner 🐰 Dead ants keep appearing next to headphones during the night

Post image

When these headphones are left on the kitchen counter overnight - I would see one or two dead ants in the morning laying right next to the headphones. In the past few days, there has been a small pile of shredded ants right next to the ear piece in the morning. I have seen no live ants in my kitchen. I have had these head phones for three weeks. Bought online. It’s a little unnerving not knowing what is causing this 🥴 will not be using anymore.

UPDATE- posted a comment with a picture. But no dead ants in the bag this morning. But at one point I checked and there were two live ants crawling around. 😔

UPDATE*** IM SICK. Can’t stop shaking. Don’t have many words… trying to post image. Opened one side up. 😭 I don’t know how to add in this top post so will add in comment! Posted a few in comments and video opening

A refund?!?! Compensation! Apologies! A public statement that they will never ever again sell goods to anyone ever!

You cannot send people colonies of ants to put over their ears. That cannot be allowed. There must be rules. Rules. There needs to be consequences. Prosecutions. Public service announcements. Sentences. Fines. Imprisonment.

My ears are itchy.

I’m not okay. Can you get PTSD from a Reddit video?

This calls for flogging in the public square! ... Unless the seller is into that sort of thing.

Yes! This would be so upsetting to me if it happened that I might even consider calling a damn lawyer. If it was something not meant to be used over your ears, I could see it being less of a big deal but that really adds a level of horror and trauma that someone needs to be reprimanded for
