I've lived on my 1 acre property for a year, and since the very first day, red ants have been covering every square foot. Ant hills up pop up every day and I've spent hundreds of dollars on various poisons, bait traps and diatomaceous earth. I've used hundreds of gallons of water just trying to flush out ant hills. Anytime I finally destroy and kill one hill, there's a dozen more have appeared on other parts of the yard.

I recently built raised garden beds for vegetables. I filled them with soil and they were quickly filled with thousands of fire ants. For 3 days I've been trying to clear the ants but they just keep re-filling the beds. I've become physically sick from the amount of red ant stings and I'm developing an extreme allergy to them. I can't even walk outside with shoes and long pants on without getting stung. What do I do? I'm getting desperate. Even if I got rid of every ant on my property, I have a feeling they'll just come from my neighbors' properties.

Picrel. Anytime anything disturbs the ground, they come out to attack.
