Just out of curiousity, where is the location of the free class in Hilo, Hilodiver? Wonder if it's the same as the info I have read online?
For me, the problem out here, this year, has been the over abundance of rain washing away the bait before it has had a chance to be consumed by the cursed LFA.
And terracore, you pretty much addressed this at the end of your last post but I was also questioning if the interaction of these two species would be the same as the link you posted. With the LFA being so much smaller than the lone fire-ant in the video.
Edited to add this:
The get worse part- some of the people dealing with the crazy ants are wishing for the fire ants to come back due to their penchant for destroying electronics.
Maybe you hadn't noticed but I did: The LFA's have this same tendency to destroy electronics. They seem to be a totally different ant from the classic fire-ant that the mainlanders have knowledge of. They seem much worse than the classic fire-ant. They absolutely love to crawl into area's with wires and electricity and cause problems. They would short out my neighbors connection from his shack to power pole with extension cords constantly. He wound up covering the connection area and having to spray Home Defense poison monthly to avoid this.
