I am o.k. I had a couple of bad days with the left foot and my breathing from it. But a little Benadryl topically and small doses of the children's liquid seemed to get me over the worse of it. I think the thing that saved me was icing the bites. The feet swelled but not like they could have. Every time they fired up, I'd wrap ice in paper towels and rub over the swollen part. There are still a few bad looking spots but I was taking anti-b's for a bad sinus infection so I think they will be o.k. I'm also putting neosporin on them now.

One of our neighbors mowed thru a mound today and fortunately I was in the yard. So we doused his bed with the drench the nursery suggested. I'm watching for them now and also watching my little dogs. I've also alerted my neighbors.

This development is on the edge of a city park where they play soccer. I see them mow before every soccer match. I plan to tell the parks manager to watch for the ant mounds. I'd sure hate to see kids getting into these things. They are bad business. Very painful bites.

Thanks for your concern.
