Red Ants

The red ant seems to be like no other ant - as my wife and I recently took a walk down the mission road in the evening, we came across a large group of such ants. Savannah looked at me and said, "you haven't really seen an ant until you have been to Africa!!". These are some of the most vicious little monsters you have ever come across - a couple months ago a large group of these ants got inside our chicken brood killing almost all 170 chickens!! Thought I would show a short video of some of these little terrorists!

Wow! I have been attacked by red ants but they were only half the size of those ones.

Welcoming committee, huh? Well book the tickets now, brother!

Please pray for little Savannah... she has taken a definite turn for the worse with regard to fearing flying creatures. (worse than her momma on a midnight game preserve ride!! ) Last night she was literally shaking in fear and jumping on the bed and running out of the room over a fly... smaller than most upstate mosquitoes!

If you have declared war on those guys... hate to say it Kevin... but you are going to lose.
