Fire Ants

[StarRaider]

You fish the river? Any good smallmouth? I’ve been tempted to float it

I don't personally but there are lots of folks catching smallmouth on it. Good access from the greenway trail heads.

when i was a kid, my dad used to use Chlordane to kill fire ant mounds. Worked like a charm.

Of course, it was banned later.... -eyeroll-

Old school of boiling water. Not sure if it’s effective long term but don’t see them around.

This is the first year I’ve noticed them in my yard and the mounds they’ve made so far have been fairly small. I’m seeing them more and more around plants, and just found out that they can be destructive to plants. If you have any roses, check them closely for activity as they seem to be attracted to them from my experience.

Interesting. We liked fire ants in cotton because they would kill bollworms.

Instant potato flakes. You're welcome.
