| I'm trying to see how far north the fire ants are....They are all over the southeast....Are they in your area?
Besides "fire ants" we call them "piss ants"...Theyll bite the piss outta you. | |

I would have never thought you had them that far north....I always thought they could not survive the freezing ground for very long at one time.... | |
