I bought a bunch of grits to try and get rid of my fired ant, but then read on a county extension website I was just feeding them, now I get to feed us instead.  This was about a year ago, so I can't remember, but they went through the breakdown with the studies that showed, if you put it on their mound they just move.  IDK, then again there are a lot of "old wives tales" that doctors said are not true but over time, they still seem to be, LOL!

I don't know but they do "disappear" when I've used the grits & if they're just moving somewhere else it must be a long way away :gig

I've used plain ol white sugar on the mounds.. either they pick up stakes and move to my neighbors or it kills them.
i've read that it causes something in their tunnels to mold.. and the mold kills them...

More than likely they just relocate


I prefer using Acephate 75 SP (excellent results with this stuff).. but it's pretty toxic stuff.. and it stinks.. lol
just about a teaspoon or two on top of the mound kills them all. For the biggest mounds it takes a day or two to kill them.. smaller mounds are usually wiped out within 24 hours.
