I know there has been a discussion on this. My issue is similer but different. LOL
My parents (Central Wisconsin) have been trying to get rid of These Big Black ants in their back yard. You know, those ants that are about the size of a dime. They have tried everything. Put boiling water on them, used pesticides. Nothing works perm. They come back every year. They are killing the grass in that area. The ground looks flat but when you step on it you sink slightly and ants start pouring out.
They seem to stay in one area of the yard. Whenever we try some pesticide they go away slightly but the next year they are back in massive swarms again.
The only annoyance of them is that they are killing the grass, making the ground nothing but dirt. They dont go in the house, that we know of, and we dont know if they byte. They just swarm and run fast when steped on.
Any Ideas?
