Why?
Ants mostly.
It’s clearly a terrorist plot to disrupt our summer picnic season.
The the potential of bio-dangers from Formic acid?
The ants are either for some Chinese "delicacy" or as an invasive species bio-weapon candidate against the United States that the Chinese want to test.
I’m convinced they are waging an invasive pest war on the west.
When I was a kid in the 70s gardening was easy and bountiful. Zucchini for example would yield so many fruit just a few plants could supply not just my family but the neighbors as well. Now?
Plant 6 Zuc and you might get a few fruits before they get a mold and wilt then die.
