What's this?

Yard. I’m using those Terro baits now. I’ve put out 56 of them already.

So you’ve used them before AND used boric acid as well?

How does that work?

I recommend that you do fire ant dust and prevention in the yard -- HokieHutch 09/18/2018 11:06AM

So he should dust the site from orbit, as it's the only way to be sure. ** -- Late 80s Hokie 09/18/2018 11:39AM

These little bastiges are fire ants. -- YardBird 09/18/2018 11:08AM

Very dangerous. Get a professional company. -- TomTurkey 09/18/2018 11:12AM

Pretty normal in the south. I didn't know much about them until I moved to -- HokieHutch 09/18/2018 3:13PM

Those are fire ants, I use ortho max granules, kills the mound in hours -- fordham 09/18/2018 10:46AM

Dang. So I’m guessing this method doesn’t get the Queen ant, no? -- YardBird 09/18/2018 11:12AM

The ortho max stuff will get the whole mound -- fordham 09/18/2018 11:31AM

In the yard, or in the house? -- JoesterVT 09/18/2018 10:41AM
