Fart detector, tell your kids

Don't. They'll try to test it. I sure would.

It’s an ant trap, best to consult your local council and a structural engineer before removing. It may be heritage listed or structurally integral to the building.

Way ahead of you, I’ve already put a claim in with title insurance and have requested we back out of the sale with the agent

Hahahaha, I think you’ve done the right thing.

An ant trap, you can just peel it off and dispose of it.

Panic button, you have to keep it out of reach of the kids.

Ant bait. I think it’s called Ant-Rid
Thank you
Yep, this is right
You can get em at the shops. Basically they have a couple of these things along with sticky backings. The idea is you place them near/in the path that you're seeing ants coming in & they detour, take the bait, and die off
Just be wary if it falls off the ceiling & you have pets or young kids. If you handle it, make sure to thoroughly wash your hands, too
