I do not have fire ants either, but I do have ants . . . I used vinegar. Hydrogen peroxide or alcohol will work too. -

We have fire ants in Houston and they are horrible. I buy Orange Oil at a plant nursery and you dilute it to use it. Its biodegradable and smells good. If it will kill fire ants then it would probably work on a tyrannsaurus rex, those little ants are horrible. -

If it did not work you are not getting to the nest.Make a small hole and pour it in getting far enough down.
