So I thought I'd try here...

We live in the Arizona desert near Phoenix and have a significant
problem with large black ants in the yard. We have had exterminators
(costly), but they were only successful for a period of time before
the ants returned.


Green? In Arizona? In the desert?

And what's this business about war against "black" ants?

Remember, you once had a governor who said: "... sometimes a Black man is
the best man for the cotton-pickin' job!"

He was run out of office. Use caution.
