Do they live atop each other? How do they keep afloat without drowning?

Somebody call Kenny Loggins because Houston is definitely in the Danger Zone.

That looks like something to spray with oil and then light up.

Yep ... that’s how they survive. So now Houston is not only dealing with floods, but this ... and gators ... and snakes.

If it wouldn’t contaminate the surface waters, posin/spray the little biting critters. They are ferocious!
Looks like they heard about taking to higher ground.

"Fire Ant Islands drift to sea and then on to Cuba" You know how great health care is in Cuba? A few years back an eldery lady was stung to death in a Cuban hospital bed by fire ants that had colonized her hospital mattress.
Staff had seen a few ants but never bothered to investigate their source. No one cared to do anything. Fix it mañana. Too late for abuela.

Napalm. It’s not just for breakfast anymore.
