i guess i'll pull it - i really don't want to risk killing my other plants.

i have three year old leaf mulch in them. even the veggie garden. ug i dread pulling it all up. it was under control until we had a ton of rain. i need to put down a good layer of DE first so i can make sure all the fire ants are dead.
