Michael,

Due to the high number of fire ant mounds on organic farms last year (of course they weren’t confined to organic farms but my point was I fielded many calls from organic growers looking for a solution), I developed a web page on organic fire ant management on my website at http://www.ces.ncsu.edu/chatham/ag/SustAg/fireants.html

I have used the organic baits in my garden and found them to be very effective.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Good luck,
Debbie
