It costs less than $3 per box. I buy the generic ones. It does not have to be fancy. I sprinkle some on fire ant hills.When the fire ants eat the grits... they explode.No need for pesticides.No poisoning the keiki o ka aina which is exactly what they want to do.Grits can be found at Safeway, WalMart, etc.Of course if people look online businesses are saying that it doesn't work. Well of course because they are trying to sell you something *rolling eyes*I use this instead of pesticides in my yard. Fire ants cannot be totally destroyed though. They move from one area to another. However sprinkling grits on fire ant hills help without poisoning the keiki o ka aina.When fire ants bite one can have an allergic reaction. Sometimes that happens to me and when bitten by a fire ant I rub ammonia on the fire ant bite. A bottle of ammonia is roughly $2 or $3. I get it at a dollar store for $1 plus tax.By the way groceries and medicines are NOT taxed in the State of Florida. Some people do not understand why I like Florida so much because gee they RESPECT ME what I a concept LOL Hawai'i is and will always be HOME to me. I plan to be buried at HOME but in Florida the PEOPLE are respected while in Hawai'i... I am appalled at how they treat HAWAIIANS. Of course some people look at ME as though I have FIVE heads LOL but I LIKE Florida because they treat the Seminoles with respect. The same CANNOT be said about the "state" of Hawai'i.Some people do not like it when I am honest which is mind boggling LOL but the "state" of Hawai'i treats dogs BETTER than they do Hawaiians... and I have dogs! I have also seen what is outside of Hawai'i and I am shocked when I compare and contrast HOME with other places. How they treat Hawaiians. Wow!!!Anyway that's another thing I learned too. Rubbing ammonia on the fire ant bite may help decrease the allergic reaction (swelling) as long as it is rubbed in asap.E malama pono!

Yeah at first I didn't believe that it works but it does. My yard hardly has fire ants/fire ant hills but I think they want people eto buy pesticides. I have read a few PubMed published papers that show a connection between pesticides and many disorders, diseases, etc. Even Parkinson's so I don't use pesticides on my lawn or even for fire ants.
E malama pono.
