Re: Fire ants !!
Ladies and Gentlemen: Someone a long time ago, told me this cheap ant/fire ant killer. Buy Dish soap containing glycerine in it. The kind that it is used to wash birds, sea-living animals when coming in contact with oil spills. The name evades my mind. Anyway, mix the soap dish with water and spray your yard, trees, flowers away. It will kill the ants almost immediately. Why you are not told more about this? Well, it will put all the economic poisons out of business.
Do not forget, use the dish soap with the glycerine in it. the glycerine sticks to the ants body and suffocates them to death.
I use it all the time. I live in Coastal Carolina zone 8a and I have no problems with the fire ants in my yard. I spray about 5 6 times a season.
lots of luck all.
