	http://www.boingbo...pon-turns-fir.html New weapon turns fire ants into headless zombies The attention-grabbing headline above is about a University of Texas at Austin effort to use parasitic flies as a defense against fire ants. Apparently, phorid flies control the fire ant population naturally in South America. From the Associated Press: The flies lay eggs on the fire ants, and the eggs hatch into maggots inside the ant and eat away at the pest's tiny brain. The ant will get up and wander for about two weeks while the maggot feeds, said Rob Plowes, a research associate at the University of Texas at Austin. "There is no brain left in the ant, and the ant just starts wandering aimlessly," he said. About a month after the egg is laid, the ant's head falls off — and a new fly emerges ready to attack another fire ant. Gross. I hate bugs and stuff like this is why.

Definitely. Spooky but very interesting at the same time.

Gone for a while. Be back when I'm back.

	I heard cockroaches were the same way. You can cut the head off, but it will be fine for a while. I don't remember how long, but I'm pretty sure it was between 2 days to 2 weeks.

	I know flies are part of the great circle of life and all that but I wouldn't mind if they all disappeared from the earth. Leave ants alone!

Leeches and parasitic worms make me go "bleeeeeeh"

We had fire ants in our back yard in Florida. Hell, we had fucking alligators in our back yard. But that's besides the point. When you live around it for years, you kinda get used to it.

I don't think I'll ever get used to mosquitos though. Ughhh those fuckers are annoying as hell.
