Most choices by COYOTE below only make the ants move, and create another hill somewhere else in your yard ... except one.
GASOLINE ... but DON'T LIGHT IT.
If you light it, the gas burns off ... and doesn't have time to penetrate deep into the hill. Just pour gas, and leave it.
Next day, all ants are dead ... not just relocated.
Growing up in Louisiana, the fireant hills would be big enough to jump with our dirt bikes. The fire ants would kill our newborn calves.
Gas is expensive, but cheaper than the so-called fireant poison. It kills the grass, but it's worth getting rid of them.
I grew up fighting them (until I moved way up north to Arkansas). Haven't seen any in the ozarks in my 14 years living here.
