Human-assisted movement is one of the key ways fire ants can spread.

Our Don’t spread fire ants campaign helps educate people about the importance of following their legal obligations when working with organic materials.
The campaign will be targeted at industry operators and businesses working within or in close proximity to the fire ant biosecurity zones.
