Fire ants are a fact of life to the Southeast.

Better stock up on diatomaceous earth...

Montecito is best known as a celebrity enclave with Oprah Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle among the town's residents.

Go, fire ants!

We’ve had the little bastards around here in SoCal for as long as I can remember.

California has a problem with the newcomers? And isn’t calling them red racist?

Probably hitched a ride on an illegal alien bedroll or backpack.

Most likely brought in from out of state sod grass or bales of hay.

IF I ever had a reason to visit Kalifornee, I might bring a jar full of fire ants to dump on the side of a road.

Make sure all those Californians know they’re 10x worse in Texas.

What a great idea! Salt prime Southern California real estate with fire ants and killer bees! Oprah's house, Streisand's, Meathead's, Rosie O'Donnell's … so many targets, so little time!

Get black Krylon spray paint. When they are out, spray them. When they go back down in the hole and see each other, they will stop working and kill each other!

Just kidding lol.

~ Montecito is best known as a celebrity enclave with Oprah Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle among the town’s residents.~

To my knowledge the only crops growing in Montecito are grapes for the wineries (many of which are owned by rich Hollywood celebrities). The real agricultural / crops are further north in the San Joaquin and Sacramento Valley areas.

has there been any terrorists passing through carrying “free palestine” signs? They’ve been known to leave behind invasive infestations.

What are the plagues that the Bible speaks of?

I can’t remember, but if someone can name them ...then compare them to the issues Kalifornia is facing.

Seem like a little HINT, YOU GUYS.

Effective control means California will have to legalize M-80s.

Ya spread uncooked grits around the mound. The ants take the grits down into the colony, and when it rains the grits swell and destroy the tunnels.

Works VERY well.

AMDRO works wonders on fire ants. I can literally make them extinct on my property with this stuff. Safe for kids and pets, too.
