Question: Rasberry Crazy Ants

Rasberry crazy Ants, a species found in wall sockets, cellphones, and television sets are slowly spreading across Texas and are poised to spread across the entire South. Named for Texas exterminator Tom Rasberry, who spotted ants moving in an erratic swarm in 2002, the destructive ants are now in 23 counties in Texas, the Austin American-Statesman recently reported. Although their march in inexorable, it is also quite slow. They travel at an average speed of 1.8 feet per day.

1. At that rate, how long will the swarm that is presently centered in Austin Texas, take to reach Boston? Express your answer in the timeframe that is most appropriate.
2. Do you need to be worried about these ants infesting your cell phone or television? Do you need to worry for your children? For your grandchildren? Explain why or why not.
