Re: Tips for Red Imported Fire Ants(Solenopsis Invicta)
I've never worked with fire ants (since I live in Michigan) but I know some people who do. First these ants are escape artist so Use the best barriers like plain talcum powder or flu-on. also these ants grow really fast so expect about 20 workers or more in a month or two.also make sure you tubing is checked every so often because these ants can sometimes chew through it.
