To overcome insects you should take advantage of their one shortcoming: FIRE. Or then again slugs. Or on the other hand blasts, tossing stars, gettin' smushed by stuff...pretty much anything, truly. Yet, that doesn't mean it'll be simple - first you've have to track down the insects. Use cutting edge 8-legged creature following innovation to pinpoint your objective's area among many potential concealing spots - then, at that point, light all that and crush the insect with a skillet after it runs out. It's the best way no doubt. Features: -Different items which are used and weapons to find and collect. -Hit the ant to kill and save your house.
