Fire ants and the world,interesting read

[My 2 cents]

There is another kind of fire ant here, or at least there was. I haven't seen them for a long time but they were here long before the LFA. Same color, a little bigger and faster moving. They make central mounds in the ground instead of multiple colonies spread about the way LFA do. I remember the bite being similar but they were much easier to control because of their central colonies and the way they carried the food/bait back to the nest instead of ingesting it first.
