I hope everyone rides out Harvey safely.On a different note. I was thinking about the major pest for all of us Southern states: Argentinean ants (and others like fire ant). On this kind of major flood -- in volume and duration -- I wonder are these ants being exterminated?
This is a once in a lifetime chance -- they all concentrated in one big immobilized mass. I wanted to paddle out with a bucket of detergent...Or... Do fried fire ants taste good? They look plump."People searching for fire ants on Google are also likely to search for how to kill them, it turns out, so here's the lowdown - squeeze some detergent on them, and the surface tension will be broken and they'll drown."
if you or know somebody that lost their trees let us know maybe members can send you/them some replacement trees once everything settles down....what you think everybody?
Glad things appear to be improving.Don't exhale just yet though, the wind may be over and the rain stopped but the event is still ongoing.Stagnant water, loss or drinking water supply, ...many things to deal with still so hang in there. We are rooting for Texas, unless of course they play Florida
