For years we fought “red ants.” When the fire ant appeared, we began to leave the reds alone so they could compete with the fire ants for food/resources as a natural solution while we fought the fire ant.
I wonder if the crazy ant is a natural enemy to other ants as well since it appears to wipe out all other insects in it’s path.
I read that the crazy ants are natural predators of fire ants. Some sites say they bite and others say they don’t, but all say they attack beneficial insects, such as ladybugs and honeybees, as well as small animals by swarming them until they choke. However the biggest complaint is that they like electrical devices and will short them out.
