I have to go and burn some leaves over two fire ant mounds before the storm. Fire ants, if you don't know, are an imported species with a nasty venom that can kill wildlife, children, anyone with a venom allergy. The sting is painful, producing pustules that are painful and slow to heal. They swarm so fast you can get covered in seconds. There are so many mounds with connections that they are nearly impossible to kill. During and after rain, you can see them moving eggs to new quarters.
Nestlings, newborn fawns, goats, calves, etc., succumb to their bites, as are children.
I hate them. When I finish this entry, I'll go out and burn some leaves over the two sites.
Now, the next thing has nothing to do with fire ants - I can't make a connection. But it's about your use of credit and debit cards, and "the rules" of their use. I have a local convenience store that won't charge a card unless you have a $5.00 purchase. That's against the rules. And you don't have to sign the back, either. So you might want to give this link a browse. There are other good articles here. Knowledge is power!
