It’s survived the age of the NTTP server, the Dot Bomb Ice Age and is thriving deep in this modern inter-web era of RSS.It’s a ferocious consumer that will “follow” you and attack if you get to near or if it sees you first. Dropping a firecracker in a nest of them is devastating – to you! Attempting to squash them underfoot will result in a painful bite that may need more than an ice pack. There is no commercially available spray for treatment.
