I hope someone over there is warning about unintended consequences

That was my first thought. But then, the ants are indigenous and not introduced like the cane toads.

Australia, is a continent. ‘Indigenous’ is a deceptive term.

Ants from one corner may wreak havoc on another.

Heh. If that were the case and there could be no problem, then those toads would already be balanced out.

Since that is not happening, then the introduction of these ants into this area is a fundamental mistake.
Find another method of control.

Indigenous, and yet to date they haven't already resolved this problem? Call me sceptical.
