Thanks for the advice--but I am not one to call "pros" without giving it a go myself! So I found my fleece lined winter jeans and stuffed them into knee high boots--wore several layers of clothing topped by a nylon raincoat (not easy to do during the summer in Alabama!), and topped it off with a net for my head and a straw hat. Stylish, huh? Well, I put some not so environmentally friendly pesticide into my garden pump and pumped it up as hard as I could and put the nozzel right into their hole and let it rip.

It worked!
