That is a good question. It turns out the ants were Argentine ants, so, a
degree of relief.
The county lady told me that fire ants eat protein. I guess a chunk of meat
dosed with
cs would be the bait. Worth a try. Trouble is, I don't have any fire ants to
try it on.
Maybe I'll try the Argentine ants, they are omnivores from what I hear.

    Got to go, county folks are coming to check out potential fire ants on
the property.

    Do you think CS in sugar water would kill fire ants? Or at least some
Nutrasweet.?
