Rialto High School?EUR??,,????'?????<???EUR?s new football field has some unwanted visitors ?EUR??,,????'?????<???(R) ants. Recently, a grounds keeper disturbed several dirt mounds filled with colonies of red imported fire ants. An orange fence now surrounds the affected area.
School officials said the ants are ?EUR??,,????'?????<?not to be messed with.?EUR??,,????'?????<?
No students ever came in contact with the ants, which are native to South America.
The district quickly contained the area and notified parents.
The biggest inconvenience has been to the Rialto High Knight football team, which has been using the lower field for practice. The school?EUR??,,????'?????<???EUR?s Cross-Country team, which typically uses the stadium track, has also been forced to find other places to run.
On September 18, the freshman football game had to be canceled because of the ants. However, future games are still on schedule. This is the first season in the new stadium.
Insecticide applied September 23 was expected to work within 12 hours.
Once the ants are gone, the football team will return to the field on October 3.
