They dont build nests in the ground like fire ants, instead have nests under things laying on the ground or in mulch etc. They have multiple queens per nest. They have found that they like protein based baits rather than sugar typ baits like most other ants go for.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!! You are right about the winter, they disappeared for about 5 months. I'm coming to get some granules!! Do I broadcast the yard? I have 3/4 acre, how much do I need? Does it work for a couple of months or so?
