    Ant Hill . . . see the depth!

    This might explain why that little bit of Ortho ant killer

    doesn't wipe out the entire colony.

    This is an amazing video of an ant hole that was filled in with cement and

    dug up to see what it looked like. Very interesting and video is short.

    Wow! Cool video. I love the complexity of the system, and the interconnected chambers.

    Little Shot of Ortho?!

    How 'bout a tank truck, or two!!

    Very hardy shovelers there, or those aren't fire ants! (Wife had an employee who was asked to "take care of" a fire ant hill in a Possum Pouch playground. Guy was very conscientious and "green." Decided not to use the provided spray, and attacked the colony .... with a weedeater!!)

    Had considered using SIPS, foam sandwich wall panels, for a house addition, but we have loads of very-beneficial carpenter ants on our acre. And they love SIPS!!
