Oh, yeah.. I forgot about that one.. I did that for the ones 
that insisted on living in the cracks of my driveway.. That did 
work.. or at least later that same day when I went to check, 
there was no activity.. so if they moved, they did it lightening 
fast! But I think they were in little fire ant heaven.. Or 
maybe..the other firey place.. Perfect for fire ants..
