They need a moat around the bee houses. I did that with my hummingbird feeders and they can't get to them anymore.
I’m in Rayne Louisiana and found crazy ants destroyed two light switches in my house they were packed in there by the hundreds and got all electrocuted to death.😮
2:39 There are species of ants that have not been scientifically documented before.
These things suck! I've got them all over my property here in Houston. Now these assholes are trying to move indoors. It's like a freaking nightmare!
I know folks in Pearland that have these ants and they are very hard to get rid of. My friend have been fighting these "Crazy Ants" for over a year with no success. She fills a large coffee can with their bodies once a week and the Orkin exterminator said her case isn't that bad.
These critters get into my cereal at work and so I eat them to save money.
When i realize this is from 2010
But still...
Scary...
I have this problem in New York. Definitely crazy ants and I can’t get them under control.
I have been fighting them somewhat successfully after a couple of years of trial and error. They are attracted by other dead crazy ants so instead of chasing them all over the property I just designated one or two places outside as kill zones and just use common Seven dust or Ortho poisons in dust form. Liquids do fair but the dust does the best. Bait doesn't do squat so don't waste your money. I'm not winning but I'm not losing so that is almost like a win lol. You can no longer see the ground in these areas where they are dying. I am still learning. Crazy ants have become #1 on top of my hate list. Moral of the story don't poison around where you are trying to keep them from or all of them will show up.
interesting, you're locked in a stalemate with ants that some other people basically claim don't exist or the incidents they cause to never happen. Likely because they themselves are lucky enough to never have to encounter them.
@@ArtisChronicles Bruh, I'm going down a crazy ant rabbit hole because the fuckers showed up and are literally coming out of my light fixtures. I don't wish this on my worst enemies, actually the ants have become my worst enemy so I imagine they would like me to wish even more of them on themselves.
They come from South America, I wonder if a wall would have slowed them down?
🤔😆
Yeah these things are insane. They are very difficult to keep out of your house. I'm battling them right now!! ARGH
Tea Tree Oil for some reason really keeps them away from my back door as I have experimented with.
This may be a stupid question, but if they don't bite how do they kill their food? How do they know humans aren't food which would prevent them from biting us? Just curious
They meant they don't sting of course they bite.
Jon Mooallem's article brought me here.
So that is where Rusty Shackelford went.
I wonder how many people are gonna get this reference. LOL
They hate cinnamon powder.
I came here thinking these ants were obsessed with raspberries, and would fight other colonies trying to set up where raspberry plants(?) are plentifful.
They will still displace ant other ant species. They'll take over Rasberry plants too.
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS TRACK
SONG ID?
I have had these in East Florida this past summer. They drove all of the fire ants away.
Worked for Orkin, Treminix and other Pest Control companies glad I got out of the business because it gives one nightmares..
I didn't know Dale from king of the hill grew a beard.
OMG an ant that doesn't make nests how odd. We don't have that type here in the UK but with our ants we normally pour boiling water on them and that kills them.
There's no mounds they leave. They go EVERYWHERE..lol....I know dry malt o meal would kill them,...I haven't tried grits but what they can't ingest, I'll give it to em. ;) They don't sting.
If the Crazy Ants were fighting the Argentinean Ants who would win?
The crazy ants defeat the Argentine ant.
These ants don't bite, but they subdue their prey by spraying formic acid.
They meant they don't sting of course they do bite its just not painful and they spray formic acid.
They have made it to North East texas
natasa don Diatomaceous Earth dust everywhere! Cost less than $15.
99% of my ants were gone in 2hours.
He said hundreds of millions 👍😂😂😂😂
Still better than fire ants.
No they are worse than the fireants they will annoy you they are taking over the whole USA and they will eat you electronicts and they will cause 40 times damage everyday I hate them I would rather be stung by the fireants than be annoyed by these ants these ants will even kill fireants they will also push fireants out of their home and take over they are so annoying they can also sting well their stings are more rare are less painful than the fireants but still they are taking over the whole usa they traveled to Florida already their making their way to oklahoma right now they are traveling to oklahoma and kansas and they have already invated the Mississippi
+erin miller sounds like illegal aliens from Central and South America !!! Disruptive, bad for the environment, invading private property, harmful to others, creating a strain on the system... sounds like illegals to me.
Don't worry when Trump becomes pres. he will kick them all out and then built a wall and keep them out.
yes sir
Hi,
is this really a problem in Texas?
doesn't sound so good...

Its a losing battle because of a lot of factors. The main one is you can treat a house but the other houses aren't being treated and they come back after about a couple of weeks after treatment. The label is the law and you can only treat with termidor twice a year. There already in Victoria, Lavaca, and Goliad counties and spreading. They will win this battle.
It's really heart warming to see that this narrator can still be a productive member of society despite the obvious massive brain damage he suffered from his stroke.
I think he's from Texas. Is that the same thing?
looks like what we call piss ants
They bore through the walls, even BRICK!!
seen these destroy genset controllers locally. they do love circuit boards
love the narrator's voice :)
RUclips OG :0
What biological controls exist in their native rage?
Why tf is this in my suggested
Diatomaceous Earth..the kind humans can ingest. Works everytime for any bug!
Pretty scary... God I hope he successful at stopping em'.
Mr Raspberry is a good, unaffected man engaged in helpful, useful work. The "reporter" is an affected dork preferring sensation and drama.
raspberry crazy ant infestation in my car!!!
What did you do? I have the same.
Holly Crap its Phase IV!
The mass of all ants on earth equals the mass of all humans on earth.
Please find something to kill & control these ants. We have millions down here in Clute, Tx. I sweep up huge piles everyday, twice a day. They've even blocked a few of my air conditioning ducts or vents to where no ac comes through to a few of our rms in the house. You can step outside anywhere in my 2 acre yard or 60 acre wood track & you'll be covered in a matter of seconds with these ants! Need Help!
Tea Tree oil, Tea tree Oil, Tea tree Oil , Tea tree Oil oh did I mention Tea tree Oil.
Neem oil
Anyone know if they kill the killer honey bees?? That would be there only benefit so far.
That's why I live in Canada. Also, I was born here
Diatomaceous Earth dust everywhere! Cost less than $15.
99% of my ants were gone in 2hours.
No shit!
Well maybe you ought to contact the people with all those letters before and after their names, aka educated people, and not your local exterminator to fix the problem.
Good Grief! More dang ants!
GIVE EM GRITS.
They will take the GRITS to the Queens, then pour water on the site.
The GRITS will expand, and BLOW UP THE QUEENS
-The Georgia remedy........
Trust me.......
lol. exactly.
Crazy infiltrators
Dat voice :P
If they're southern speeches, then they will probably die if the temperature goes sufficiently below zero. To kill all the ants in a car, the car just has to be driven to some refrigeration facility, may be parked into a refrigerated railroad car, and let to become to about -10 degrees Celsius. A trip to some northern region during winter will also probably do. The reason, why -1 degrees Celsius will probably not be enough is that ants do not consist of pure water, which means that they freeze at a lower temperature than pure water. Another idea might be to deprive the ants in the car from oxygen, but that can be a dangerous undertaking to humans, because humans might be suffocated like pigs suffocate in slaughter houses. Third option might be ant traps that do not kill all ants, but have a statistical effect. May be some canister that lures the ants in, but does not allow them to climb back up. There might be some materials that are too slippery for insects to climb on them, but may be a vibrator from mobile phones or sex shop or a loudspeaker or some ultrasound device might be connected to the only surface that leads out of the canister. In stead of ether, small amount of ordinary gasoline might be used for killing the ants after they have been collected to the canister. The gasoline fumes would be inhaled by the ants and that's probably toxic to them. Subdued ants might also be burned without them running away from the open pile.
All in all, the ants seem to be not that big of a problem and the media coverage just magnifies the topic. If I was able to crank up a few ideas and this comment here in 10 minutes while drinking my "morning coffee", then the ant problem does not look that interesting (to me).
They will drill through all traps.
The only way to kill them is to burn them and send them into space.
Until the entire species is eradicated.
get them into your car and you'll end up with a nonfunctioning car if they're left to their own devices.
How about fighting fire with fire? Find something that eats them and that is easier to get rid of after all the fireants have been eaten? May be a robot vacuum cleaner in the Car might even do. Another robo-vacuum device near the engine and the tide might start to change. After all, in 21. century we have embedded computers for creating various interesting gadgets. There's even a laser system that shoots only one type of insects, mosquitoes, and the rest are left alive. A computerized "frog" that eats only one type of insects and not other speeches? Poison hits all insects, but a computerized frog can choose, what type of insects are left alive and what insects are killed. Remember matrix printers? Imagine a similar device, except that in stead of hitting a colored tape, the device slams ants, SELECTIVELY, according to real-time classification of insects. First vacuum all insects and then selectively slam only the bad ones and release the others.
Is the narrator speaking with peanut butter in his mouth?
@Suffer No Fools Why are you here
