Another informative response Michael and a BIG thank you! Bee article
was interesting and I'll get mail from them on gardening.

Ant mounds are near the road, about 150 yards away from the house. A
few found the expansion joint at edge of garage floor and pad outside.
They sure like the Amdro. Label indicates a three day cycle for the
queen.

You should note that Amdro is not an instant fix - it takes a little time
between application and an empty mound. Dunno your level of infestation, but
if you use Amdro to knock the number of mounds back drastically this year,
you'll only have to treat a few here and there in the future as new colonies
establish from queens flying in from surrounding areas. Keep a close eye on
the edges and expansion joints of your driveway and concrete walkways - those
are favored locations for fire ants to establish colonies.
