A good while back, couple 2 or 3 years ago, a family complained of a smell they thought was coming from under the house in the crawl space.
Turns out, there were multiple snake nest down there. One of the children kept finding shed snake skins by the door
Now that's enough to leave town

Yikes! That's my worst nightmare. 
There was a story going around that when they built the wal-mart here that they were clearing the land and found a great big snake nest there. I don't know if it's true or just small town rumors, but it does give me the willies just thinking about it, even though it was many years ago.
U-haul...

I had a couple that got into my kitchen a couple years ago somehow. I read online to try talcum powder, that it disrupts them. I was skeptical but I was thinking it was better than squishing them. I put lines of talcum powder and they marched right through it. I grumbled to myself about not believing tips on the internet, but after that they disappeared, so it was a success I guess? Or a coincidence maybe I dunno.
Now I have a cat, so if I ever get any ants again, I think that solution is out, because she'd probably roll in the talc ad have a great time.

Not much of problems with ants, but I've had issues with pantry moths in the kitchen. No matter how far sealed some food is, even if unopened, I've managed to stumble upon a moth in it, questioning if it's sufficient just to get rid of it and still use the food regardless, really not a fan of throwing away food.
One option that was sort of sufficiently effective was to move most of food in glass jars with metal lid to keep it mostly isolated. The only flaw is that the metal lid can get rusty after trying to clean it few times.
The second option was using fly traps in pantry, but it's more effective to trap my fingers (takes forever to clean the residue) and the floor instead of staying still on the pantry wall (it falls occasionally and sticks on whenever it drops).
It gets worse when you see them enter the pantry and then you have to dig the whole area to search and destroy them.
