 those two words fit together perfectly. If he is having trouble with
 ants that will attack, kill, and eat ants than it is probbly fire
 ants.
 the best way to keep them away is to spread some poisoned ant food
 around the nest. The ants have gotten into my hives before attracted
 by the surger serip
 
 An even safer way to protect your hives is to use tar paper between
 the ground and the stand, espeically in the south
 cause on hot days an ant would die if he walked over the tarpaper

 Carefull, ant poison can also be bee poison. If you use DIAZINON
 within 4 meters of your hives you will also have very dead bees.
