    It is necessary to eliminate all invasive fire ant colonies to eradicate the invasive population because fire ant colonies can spread by sending out winged members and even a single remaining colony can rebuild the invasive species' population.

    Answer: Option B & C

    Explanation:

    Invasive fire ants are red in color and they spread so rapidly. When slightly disturbed they become more aggressive and they sting everything on their way. Their sting is so painful and cause excess swelling, itching and thickening of tongue. Fire ant colonies are to be eliminated completely because they form mounds on trees and totally eat them up.

    Baits are used to minimize the invasive fire ants but to eradicate them totally is a hypothetical question. When the bait acts on a colony of the red ants at once it splits into small colonies. These small colonies are enough to rebuild a whole invasive species again and they have the ability to spread by sending out winged members.
