I asked a similar question a couple of weeks a go. Not about fire ants, but one of these links might be what you are looking for. Good Luck!

I'm allergic to fire ants so it's important for me to keep my lawn fire ant free!  I just go to the local Home Depot and get some fire ant killer.  Any brand works really.

Who wants to fire ants. They are hard workers. Consult the extension agent in your area. They will tell you the safe way.

Good luck. I hate those ants; I am so allergic to them.  I have heard grits also.

I have never been able to get rid of them either.  They just move a few feet and build another mound.
