New roommates

Onsdag vågnede vi op til nye roommates på værelset.. 

De var flyttede ind lige pludselig - og helt uden at spørge om lov!

Ca. 500 termitter (og flere på vej) havde nemlig valgt at de gerne ville lave en ny rede på vores værelse... 

Så vi måtte have fat i personalet, og heldigvis, i løbet af 30 minutter havde vi besøg af nogen som kunne sprøjte os fri for termitter, og i det mindste sørge for at standse problemet. 

Jeg tror aldrig jeg har set en termit før, så nu er jeg da blevet den oplevelse rigere! Og de to herrer som kom for at sprøjte for dem, kunne også belære os yderligere om termitterne - som de sagde "så er det jo en institution for læring!".

Wednesday we woke up to new roomates in our dorm.. 

They had moved in all of a sudden - and without even asking for permission!

About 500 termites (with more coming every second) had decided that they wanted to make a new nest in our room...

So we quickly got a hold of the residence assistant (who by the way could tell us that it was termites), and within 30 minutes we had someone come by to exterminate them, or at least stop the problem for now. 

I don't think I've ever seen a termite before, so that must be my "something new" for the day! And the two gentlemen who came to exterminate them could even teach us more about the termites and how they work - as they said "this is what they call institutional learning!".
