I've used that, works good as a spot treater. It has to be dry though. I'll shoot you the name of the whole yard treatment I use. Works for months and months but all this rain and me not getting to spreading it they are washing into the yard again. I live down hill and those *****es literally float with a heavy rain and setup shop whenever or wherever the water stops.

I have a few buddies who are farmers. I can get my hands on just about any kind of pesticide. I can get some 100% Lanate. That **** will kill anything. I have a 2 gallon jug of Thiadan, thats the only thing I have ever found that will kill fleas.

There's some new fire ant chit with a 1 year guarantee but you have to have a license to buy it. See if you can get some of that stuff. Wish I had a line on some it's expensive to pay someone to buy/spread

I'm not a big fan of chemicals though. Your kids play out on the yard and you know it gets on them. IMO, a big cancer risk, jmo.

I will check on that. I got some stuff called Gramoxone that I spray my ditch with. You can spray it at 10 and its dead at 2. When I say dead, I mean crunchy, dried up dead. My buddy tells me that its the only chemical known to man that there is no cure for. He says if you get it in your mouth or in a cut, you are a dead ass. It has a skull and crossbones on the jug and you have to mix it with a mixing oil to activate it.

I know what you mean Tex. The stuff I use is used on golf courses and has been for years. I put as little pesticides out as I can but your kid stepping in a fire ant mound will have you looking for plan B. We have them bad around me.

Can it kill ebola or cancer cells?
