Vicious TX critter attack and guns useless

Just a hint here, propane is cheaper and eaiser to get than acytelene, is heavier than air and will sink to the bottom of the mound.

Long fuse works best, keeps old men from having to run and lets you enjoy the show.
 
Pax, the theory goes that the ants eat the dried grits, and the grits expand when they get to the ants' stomachs, thus causing the ants to pop, somewhat like popcorn (except with tiny ant screams).

Hasn't worked so far, though. :D

I've engaged in a mini-war with fire ants since doing most of my growing up in the suburbs of New Orleans.

Fire ants and mosquitos!

Finally moved to the Atlanta area, where I spent many years in fire-ant-less bliss..., 'til about the early 80's, when I discovered a nest at a county fair near Snellville.

The fire ants must've remembered me, 'cause they immediately reopened hostilities!

I moved 25 miles further north, to Gainesville.., but they've caught up to me again! They even invaded my house about a year ago, and tried to walk off with my potato chips!!! I put little mounds of ant poison around the kitchen..., which were gone in a couple days. Put an end to their thievery!!!

So I've reconciled myself to a life of constant warfare. My riding lawnmower does a pretty good job of taking off the top of the mound, and tossing it several feet :)
