Just received this info and thought it might be of interest to readers
of this list. This is a joint project between the USDA and Florida,
Mississippi, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Texas. While we'll never get
totally rid of the little devils it would be great to get them under
control.
I did have some success this summer keeping the fire ant population
under control on my 1/2 acre here in Hernando County by using a
combination of baits and broadcasting over the whole area rather then
treating individual mounds. Hopefully one day soon we will be able to
get the biological controls.
