Well, you don't mind the other ants... except LFA. That's the problem... When all the "other" ants aren't around is when you know you have a problem! LFA is the top ant so it seems. When you find all of you local ants disappearing ... it's probably an LFA infestation.
As for keeping them out of Volcano? GOOD LUCK! Seriously. My car is loaded with them. I don't eat, but sometimes I forget and leave my coffee cup, not very often, when I return? Covered in Fireants! Why don't you spray? I DO! Why don't you bait? I have! I've cleaned the entire car even removing the console, and spraying all the floor boards. Still they come back. Dunno... so you are gonna tell me I can't drive my car to friends in volcano? I can't be the only one! Dunno, if my car is leaking and spreading fireants, but, I can't guarantee is isn't.
These ant's are here to stay. I had 6 acres in Orchidland 10 years ago. Called the county pest control, only to say, go treat em yourself. If only the friggen acted 10 years ago, they might have got a handle on them. At lest other islands are doing something about it, but unless travel and shipment of good between the islands are banned, they will continue to battle and maybe even give up since, I think they are beating a dead horse.
Too me, you let one island become infested and do nothing, then you spend millions trying to control it on the other islands. Frogs are one thing, these ants are another. esp, when they get in the trees.
