The general opinion among others I know here in SE Texas was "Yes! Fire ants are going down! Wait a second..." Dealing with fire ants was pretty much a way of life, and sure it's great that the fire ants are down (and now fleas are up!), but we don't really have any good OTC treatments for raspberry ants, and the sight of a handful of them is enough to stir a little fear in a homeowner's heart. At least down here, no one wants the raspberry ants either. You knew that if you poisoned every fire ant mound in your yard each time one popped up, you were generally ok (and would have a bit less labor if your neighbors did the same), raspberry ants? Sheesh - all you can do is call the exterminator and hope they can make a dent.
