Entitled Homeowners Refused to Pay My Plumber Dad – They Thought They Were the Smartest, but He Had the Last Laugh

Dad told me a story about a job where the Carlyles tried to stiff him on payment after he renovated their bathroom. They picked everything out themselves but claimed the tiles were wrong and only wanted to pay half.

Frustrated, Dad decided to teach them a lesson. Instead of water, he mixed sugar and honey into the grout. A few weeks later, the Carlyles’ bathroom became overrun with ants and cockroaches. They spent a fortune on pest control, but nothing worked. The Carlyles never figured out the cause and eventually had to redo the bathroom, but the bugs kept coming back.
