Oooooo!!!
I love the thought of boiling the little buggers! :nod:

Woah, those ants you guys have sound horrible!

I lived in NC and the ants there are huge like their mosquitoes but here in S. Florida they are tiny nuisance.

Yes I had the little tiny ants all over the place but then there were all kinds of Ant Lions depressions not far from the ant piles. Then as summer progressed right under my growing table’s wasps had all sorts of holes in the ground. I would go to check my plants and these wasps would be flying in and out of there holes right next to my feet…!!!...it was not a comfortable feeling…luckily I was never bit…I read that they are good predators to have in the garden for pest control..

YIKES Jo Ann!

Although I'm a southern girl who loves the land around her home...my condo here in florida is sounding better and better. I'm 1st floor but I think I'm safe.

The ants are probably so small here because they are dehydrated from the trip up.

I guess because I'm a little further north in Florida, the ants here are HUGE! We also have the tiny ones but some of the bug ones are like aliens!!!

...and WASPS??? :yikes:

:faint:

LOL, :rofl: the visual picture I'm coming up with is too funny.

Our fire ants are tiny - not much bigger than a flea. Put they pack a powerful punch when they sting. They all climb on you at one time and they are so small you don't know they are there - then WHAMMY they all sting you at one time (they release some kind of attack phermon (sp) that tells them to all sting at one time) So a person can get hundreds of stings in a couple of seconds. That's why if you are allergic to bee stings (or ant stings) you have to be so careful! I walk around outside and watch my feet all the time. Sad but true. :(
Better than being dead I guess.

I use to never wear shoes just romp around barefoot all the time - summer and winter (well except when it got real cold). But not anymore.
