One of the more satisfying things I've spent time in my life doing, was burning fire ants.
Very cool.

Thankfully my wife mows the yard. I hire the house cleaners in return...

If you don't have fire ants, consider yourself fortunate.

I've had very few fire ants the past couple of years. Must be because of the half ton of fire ant bait I've put out the past 10 years.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost....

our fireant problem doesn't seem to be as intense lately, like the last couple of years. don't know of predators/parasites or insecticides are taking their toll.
good riddance, what a vexation they are.

there is a new species of ant that has been introduced that wipes out the fire ant - and they don't bite humans
the down side is they love to mass inside the walls of houses and short out electronics.
I can't remember where they are but there is a pocket of them in the south and they are slowly spreading out.

found it
"crazy" ants and they are in Texas (also now Louisiana, Mississippi and Florida)
------------
Unlike its cousin the fire ant (also called the red ant), which it has displaced in several locations, the crazy ant is highly invasive. Moving into competitive territory, crazy ants aggressively compete for other species’ resources and establish dominance. Poison bait that works on fire ants is ineffective on crazy ants because the insects won’t take it.
“When you talk to folks who live in the invaded areas, they tell you they want their fire ants back,” Ed LeBrun, an invasive species researcher at the University of Texas, said in a UT Austin College of Natural Sciences video. “Fire ants are in many ways very polite. They live in your yard. They form mounds and stay there, and they only interact with you if you step on their mound.”
