I kill colony after colony of fire ants but a new swarm of mounds crop up in their place in short order.

"I kill colony after colony of fire ants"

I'm in central Tx. and this is the first year in longer than I can remember that I haven't found a single fire ant bed in my yard. When I mention it to other people they say the same.

And also for the first time in more years than I can remember I've seen horned toads in my yard. In fact four sightings.

It's been 20 years for sure and maybe 40 since I'd seen a single one.

Same here. Also have tent caterpillars in all my pecan trees and most of them are too high to spray. Just giving up and letting them go.
