[at-l] Fire Ants

[Tim Rich]

When fire ants are in wooded areas, their mounds are not as large or even noticeable as they are in a yard, pasture or field, so it's a bit tough to recognize them from a distance.  They will default to less compacted soils, so areas around shelters may not have a mound, but just off into the woods could be many. The lack of hiker observations isn't surprising.

Take Care,

Tim

C'mon deadheads, let's hear your reports.  Not where you think they are, or will be, but where you've seen them along the trail.
