Hi,

I also posted this in the "pests and diseases" forum but I think this is the right forum for it:

I was just outside gardening and I noticed a trail of ants that fit the description of fire ants. The only difference being that these were not aggressive. I teased some with a stick and they turned and ran away. Will fire ants do this or will they actually attack the stick? Hopefully someone here knows the answer to this.

Thanks.
