Flicker Ants Are Coming For Your Circuit Boards!

Don't let their cute name fool you, a flicker ant infestation can ruin your company's IT Infrastructure instantly. You don't want these little suckers crawling around in your datacenters and blowing out your mainframe.   These ants were bio-engineered by deviant scientists, probably Moldovan geneticists. That's what my own personal research is telling me, and I've spent hours on it. I'm probably the closest thing this planet has to an expert on Flicker Ants.

How Are They Different From Regular Ants?

 
Ants on a Circuitboard
First off, their cell membranes have altered to better conduct electricity. These enhanced cellular ion channels mean that when they crawl into your circuit boards they might make a connection where there shouldn't be one. Next thing you know your computer short circuits and your system is fried.   You're probably asking yourself, "But why would ants crawl in my computer?" Hey, that's a good question, bud. The Moldovan geneticists thought of that too. The antennae on these little mother truckers are wired differently.   They're attracted to electrical currents, and radio waves. Why? Because Flicker Ants translates those electrical currents like normal ants pick up on mating pheromones. So when a Flicker Ants picks up on a nearby electrical current, it thinks it's party time.   So now you got a squad of horned up Flicker Ants doing the humpty dance on your harddrive, and you haven't run a data backup in five years. Hasta Lasagna Don't get any on ya.  

But Why Make These Abominations?!

  Because alls fair in love and corporate sabotage. My research points to a web of corporate espionage that goes so deep, that I'm fearful for my life. That's why I'm posting anonymously.

My sources tell me that the Moldovan geneticists were operating under the influence of an anonymous patron connected to Questgen . The Flicks were supposed to be their secret weapon to be utilized against company's that they want to crush. But it ain't easy keeping ants in line. I should know, I've been in the pest control business for 35 years.  

How Do I Protect Myself From Flicker Ants

  Okay, now we're asking the real important questions. You want to be safe, you want to make sure the next time you're jacked in, an ant orgy doesn't pop your powerblock.   It just so happens I developed a special radio transmitter that doesn't just ward off Flicker Ants but, stops them in their tracks. With my Flicks No More transmitter, Flicker Ants looking to party on your server farm will get their brains scrambled and served up on toast.   Me and my partner are already selling about 100 a week online, and we believe our patent will be approved any day now. What we need is for someone who is a little more liquid, with a mind for marketing to take us mainstream.   That's why we're asking for an upfront investment of $250,000 for 15% stake in Flicks No More LLC.   We believe that this partnership will not only be beneficial financially, but will ultimately save the world from the Flicker Ant
