I learned an interesting tidbit of information while visiting the Lusk Lodge. Bob had several large colonies of red ants along a pathway to the catfish pond. Someone (can't remember who) told Bob that he should erradicate them. Bob said that he liked the large red ants because they will not tolerate fire ants in their area. He said that although red ants bite their bite is not nearly as painful as fire ants.

I had never heard that red ants go after fire ants before.
