Mound Leveler® was a product with multiple ingredients billed to control fire ants.  Many food grade and cleaning products have been suggested as ingredients for control of red imported fire ants. The list is almost limitless and includes sugar, aspartame, instant grits, vinegar, soaps, oils, petroleum products, soil amendments. Some have been introduced as products while others remain home remedies. Limited laboratory and field trials have been scientifically conducted to support or refute claims made by proponents.  Read more about novel products and methods marketed to control fire ants at eXtension.org.
