    They have one kind on the big island called an LFA - Little Fire Ant. Painful bites. I believe they've been successful in stopping it from getting to the other islands.

    Yes we have a couple areas on Oahu with infestation of them and we don't have anything here to combat them. Plus they love our banana trees.
    Maybe we need to import a bunch of ant eaters and let them free.

    Oh, I nuked the little fuckers from orbit just to be sure. While this mound will be dead by morning (I tore it apart, spread it out, and AAMDRO’ed the shit out of it) I can only hope I nailed it before any princesses can skate away to start another mound elsewhere.

    Had one bite me UNDER my fucking wedding ring.....in two spots. Didn't even know it till the next day when it turned into the little pimple that they always do. I had to explain to my wife why I couldnt wear my wedding ring for 2 days.
    How the fuck it even got to my finger with out me knowing about it is beyond me. FUCKERS!!!
    Yeah, I'm with you, they are evil personified.
    There should be a team of people going around after a flood burning the mats of them.

    Not really a wtf. My grandfather gave me a pair of new My Slippers. This things are super comfy but they were too small for him but fit me well. The kind of wtf is that the size 15 was too small for him.
