New LFA thread (p.s. Tango doesn't work)

Obie.
This flea powder contains fipronil. The reason they work so well is just a tiny amount is very toxic to insects including fire ants.

Flevox Large Dog Flea Treatment is
a Fipronil based spot on treatment

Longlast Fipronil Flea and Tick Spray for Dogs

Bob Martin FleaClear Spot On for Cats

Fipronil , a new active ingredient used in
Parastar, a flea treatment

Full concentrates on insecticides are expensive and more dangerous.

Instead of spending $117 and getting hazmat suit I would try it. Specifically have in mind keeping it away from areas bees go. This chemical will kill whole bee hives.

Bait the buggers with some peanut butter underneath a cut-out plastic jug weighed down with a stone. Add the flea powder onto a foil so it won't go into ground water. Of course you are being far more responsible than pet owners that let their pets carry fipronil all over the place, but that is the type of person you are.

Report back to group. I have no fire ants (Wasmannia auropunctata) to try for you.


Peter,
Obie is currently up two points in bartering and this one didn't count owing to indirect reference to a favorite movie. Wait, no, he scored another. Obie up three.

If no one caught the reference the line he may have unwittingly referred to was spoken by Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada.
