[Texascavers] tawny crazy ants
Crazy ants have been in the press off and on for over 15 years and haven't driven us crazy yet. Maybe these tawny crazy ants are significantly different, but maybe not. The info on the other crazy ant on the AM site is very similar. Anyway, thanks, George, for pointing us to the Texas AM site, which appears to be authoritative. A press release quoting only a guy who runs an exterminating company (and who named the ants after himself) is hardly worth notice. Anyway, sounds like another species that is, with human help, finding a nice new niche. Who says humans only harm species? -- Mixon A little sincerity is a dangerous thing, and a great deal of it is absolutely fatal.

Yes, Bill, tawny crazy ants are different and we only have ourselves to blame for their presence in Texas.
