@Boredgardening "Fight" is certainly one option... the other starts with "F" as well. The two introduced fire ant species (Solenopsis invicta X richteri) had no access to each other in their native range, but are hybridizing in the US. https://t.co/fsWzOX

#Solenopsis invicta (Red Imported Fire Ant) has taken over nearly all of the previous range of S richteri (the Black Imported Fire Ant.) S invicta and has also suppressed populations of native fire ant species. https://t.co/jCkny2Z8bF
