One of my greatest joys in moving back North from Texas, was the ability to lay down on my yard without being attacked by fire ants. A warm day under a shade tree, hearing the birds, laying on a blanket, for a nice nap. Priceless! (Sometimes waking with a cat butt in my face!)

I hate ants, always hated ants. I was forever traumatized when stationed in Panama on Flamenco Island. I decided to try to hike around the island's rocky shore line when I encountered a 4 ft. wide path of leaf cutter ants in my way..........totally freaked me out!
