In July 02 we flooded extremely badly at the lake I saw mats of 
fire ants from quarter size to small vehicle size. It took several 
hundred ants to make a quarter size floating mat I cant begin to 
imagine how many it took for the large rafts. When these mats hit 
shore the ants would just swarm the shoreline. It wasn't a good 
idea to walk around the lake for about a week after the water went 
down.


But I guess the real question is with
