I wonder how much the guy who offered $4550, got for his brain when he auctioned that off. :)

There has to be an easier way to get rid of the ants. ; )

There is; the same one I use to use, on bee's. Add 1 gallon of gas high test or regular, doesn't make much difference.

Pour this down the hole, for bee's after dark is best. Stand as far away as you can throw a match, instant eradication.

Also leaves a good hole!, for trash dumping. But not recommended for wasp nest on your house, unless you have really good fire insurance. :)

This is what you call "Hillbilly Extermination". :lol:

I did something like that when I was a kid. I was maybe 11 or 12 and used to cut through the neighbors yard on the way home. There was a rather large paper wasps nest (basketball sized) hanging on a branch near where I would cut through. I enlisted the help of my neighbors 8 year old and after dusk I set my aluminum disk (snow flyer) under the nest. He had the branch cutters. I doused it in lighter fluid and can still remember them climbing out of the hole to see what that was on their nest. I lit it, he cut the branch and it was death to hundreds of paper wasps. I lived in a suburb of Boston at the time. Can't say that anyone ever called me a hillbilly though.

That's cool. I bet the ants didn't like it much but who cares. I had to hire someone to come to my house to get rid of them. They are nasty little buggers.

Can't worry about the ants. This fall a middle school football player in south Texas fell on an ant mound during practice and had a reaction from the ant bites and died.

It helps if you have some soil that you can actually dig, like sandy soil. We tried doing it about twenty years ago. doesn't work so good in the red clay. We smelted the beer cans down in a fish cooker.

Yup, we had a hornets nest 30ft up a tree hanging over our patio. One #6 shot from a 12 gauge at the thin branch this basketball sized nest was hanging from and down she came. Rushed over and sprayed Hornet Killer in their front door and job done! But before anyone asks, that was a couple of weeks ago after a few nights of hard frost and the experts had assured us the little buggers would be sound asleep!

Now you've gotta figure out how to mount that thing.

Wow!, Should we do it to this anthill? We would need to bring in the heavy equipment, but that is possible, since it's smack in the middle of a logging area. hmmm...
