Re: [VFB] Ant swap flies arrivedDon: I'll have to do a test on that and try to
find out. I'll let ya know what I find out. Down in FL, those things are worse
than they are here in Bama, and my wife's grand daddy had hardly any feeling in
his legs cause of diabetes, and he was standing in a fire ant bed once, and was
bitten over 1,000 times before he knew what hit him. He should have been dead,
but survived somehow. Chuck

Chuck,
Do the gills eat the fire ants if you toss them in (via a shovel)?
I've done research and some believe some fish are turned off to ants because
of the high levels of formic acid. Others say the acid in a fish's stomach is
stronger and breaks the formic acid down.
I know all about them fire ants. It was a secondary reason my dad moved to
Wyoming (leading our move). He was very allergic to fire ant bites- would go
into shock.
