The dreaded Fire Ant! Yes, their back, here is a bed that started out small but has grown all the way to the end of the curb. Luckily Fire Ant products have improved and they can be controlled.
If you are selling your house, it is a good idea to have your yard treated for fire ants. It may cost a little more, but if your house is vacant and no one is watching over it. These stinging ants can take over your yard in no time. If you happen to have a buyer accidentially step into a bed of these bad boys, don't expect raving reviews or an offer.
I've been stung without even seeing the nests, and you are covered before you know it. The worker ants cover you fast, and the the Queen ant gives the signal and they all bite you at once. They then itch, turn into ugly sores, and well it's just gross!
When my nephew was 7 we were staying at a hotel and had pulled up to check in. He was getting back in the car and all of a sudden he screamed "Ants". We turned on the car lights and he was covered from his feet up to his stomach. It was dark and he had stepped in an enormous bed. Ants were all over the interior of the car in a split second. The next day he counted over 100 bites.
Check Home Depot, and Lowes, or a Garden Center. Buy a product that kills the Queen.
Amdro is one of the better products.
