[QUOTE="milesvb, post: 237140, member: 413"] There is a tiny fly that preys on the fire ant in it's native range. These flies have been released on a number of sites in Texas after a study determined they prey only on the imported fire ant. The fly lays an egg on the ant which hatches out and decapitates the ant :D . This threat supposedly puts colonies in enough stress that it slows them down to some degree. I guess time will tell.
