Aloha Cal, my husband has been working on the Big Island and living in our home in Hawaiian Shores Rec. since Nov. 1st. Just this week he told me that while working in our yard there he was bitten by some little red ants. He said the bites caused red welts and were really painful for awhile. So - - when I read the article in the paper (I read it on-line every morning)I though ah-ha! It sure sounds like the ones he encountered to me. He did spray after he was bitten, but it sounds like they are hard to get rid of. Uh-oh . . .
