Maybe we should sent them some fireants. That would change their minds in a hurry.

Hehehe... yep, or some of these:

The dreaded "Bullet Ant" - shown actual size (!!)

My thoughts exactly, fireants would make the Germans fine tune what they are good at and that is making insecticides (Zyclon B for example).

LOL! I was going to post the same thing. No other insect in the U.S. is as evil as the fire ant. Let the forestry workers try to relocate a fire ant colony! That would be funny to watch!

good idea. I have a couple of fire-ant colonies in my yard I'd be DELIGHTED to send to Germany.

btw - I have finally found a way to kill those muthas. I pour several ounces of "Fly Away" concentrate (for making pest repellent/poison for use on horses, nasty stuff) down a pit I poke in the heart of the nest, wait a few minutes for the colony to go absolutely nuts about the assault and for the poison and kerosene to penetrate deepl, then light it with a propane torch. The fire seems to drive the stuff throughout the colony through the ants' own passageways. Dead colony is the result. Unlike Malathion, this stuff seems to KILL them, rather than prompting them to move.

Lets send the Frogs some too. Also some Bullet Ants
(their bite hurts so much people bitten by them think they have been shot! - no kidding).
