: Gio.....black ants. Here all we ever see are the long endless trials of them on the move. How would you handle this Spectracide with that situation?

Georgia, you need to find the mound to have any success with this stuff. Once you have, just water this stuff in.

Could it be placed under our sulcata's dogloo houses where the ants tend to gather for the warmth at night without harm to our boys, Tonka & Buster?

Oh sure, your in better shape because you have bigger torts and they have probably been in contact with the ants before. I would only be concerned about it getting on them or them eating it.

:When you say they'll be long gone. Do they die or leave the area?

Both, depending on how disturbed they become during the process. This stuff is for Fire Ants but I have had it be effective on many others. Why don't you read this data on different treatments.

I wish all my fire ants would move to bin Laden's place
