What you REALLY REALLY REALLY SHOULDN'T DO is to introduce Pharaoh ants into or near data centers.

Because...

The also reproduce through clonal budding. The build very small colonies (a few hundreds to thousands of ants) and when stressed due to anything, they'll move their larvae and raise one of them into a new queen to form a new colony. This means Pharaoh ants are practically impossible to eradicate once they get established. They're also VERY QUICK to move into climate controlled environments. And YES they DO cause severe damage to electrical equipment, and for some GODFORSAKEN SATANIC REASON, they FUCKING LOVE ELECTRICITY and ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT!

Source, I had to get almost 10k in electrical work done because after hiring a shitty pest control company, their treatments weren't focused on the biology of pharaoh ants (they didn't even bother to ID them), and by stressing the population, the EXPLODED the population. The ants then decided that my electric panel and several outlets had become their SWORN enemy, to the point it became a real fire hazard as a seemingly endless series of ants came to die by burning up between some junctions.

Please don't plant bamboo in non-native areas. It's much better to find a protected native species and plant those instead :)

Bamboo is invasive in north America. Don't

it also strangles basically any native plant it spreads close to, lowering local biodiversity and lowering soil quality. and it grows extremely quickly. not a good thing to plant more of, no matter how pure your motives.

*notices comm name*

uh... fuck you op...?

Don't think planting possibly invasive species will solve any problems.

Please don't plant invasive plants in vulnerable ecosystems

Warning, don't plant bamboo underneath the restrained torsos of Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg, O'Leary, etc. as they grow so quickly with hard rigid points that they can break through a human torso in 3 days.

Wow. In the novel Soft Apocalypse by Will McIntosh, eco terrorists develop a strain of bamboo that will grow through anything. They plant it to tear up buildings, roads, and the occasional human. Now we just need someone to create the Dr Happy pill.

Ah yes, grass, the natural enemy of the giant construction machines

You underestimate their willingness to just blanket the surrounding area in herbicide. They don't actually need their water to be potable.

Bamboo is beginner shit, if you really want to cause trouble, try japanese knotweed. They will never be able to get rid of that!

Horseradish spreads quickly underground, and it's ugly. A friend of mine destroyed his backyard with a small patch of horseradish. Within a few years, his backyard was unusable.

Its a datacenter not a golf course. They're going to bulldoze the entire lot anyways.

People, people, please. May I suggest a warm cocktail? It's always worked in the past.

The government would hate it if you happened to lose a sizeable device capable of spontaneously combusting near a data center.

I've got my bamboo seeds on order. Best case scenario...wild vicious pandas show up and tear everything down in their search for more bamboo. /s

bamboo and tree of heaven at every DC building's foundation's edge. poison hemlock also, as an de-incentive for any class traitor who's decided to work there

Bruh, this is just making things worse, bamboo is a invasive plant species
