The annual battle between me and my arch enemy, the Fire Ants has begun. To the winner of the battle goes control over my Spring Texas yard and to the loser goes either death or at least immense pain followed by swelling and severe itching.
Back in March I made my first move and applied Over n’ Out Fire Ant killer on my yard. Today the Fire Ants retatilated with a vicious and unsuspecting attack.
There I was standing in my landscape bed neatly trimming the shrubbery when all of a sudden I felt a sharp, stinging pain on my foot, and then another and another and another. I looked down and noticed I was surrounded by Fire Ants.
When I was minding my own business, the Fire Ants had snuck up on me. Either that or I unknowingly stepped on one of their mounds. Either way it was too late. The Fire Ants had made their attack and it was a strong attack.
I quickly retreated into my house to treat my wounds. On the kitchen floor I sat applying anti-itch first aid creme to my feet while watching them swell and cursing the bloody Fire Ants underneath my breath.
After I was able to regain my composure, I sent my best man, Rick into battle to spot treat the scene of the attack. Today’s victory in battle goes to the Fire Ants as I will be favoring my wounds for a couple of days. But the war is not over as there will be new battles to fight and with Fire Ant spot treatment in my arensal and a watchful eye I will be victorious. I will win control of my Spring Texas yard.

This process was extremely difficult for me, as my father passed away last year. Jill listened to EVERY story I had, and there were a lot of them! She allowed me to share the memories of the house, which helped me prepare to let it go.
She is very knowledgeable in what to and what not to do in regards to getting the home ready to sell, what to tackle during the negotiation process and she made the closing extremely convenient. She was thoughtful enough to place the "sold" sign on the property a week in advance, to allow me time to process it all.
Paying constant attention to what is happening around your listing is one of JIll's many strengths. Her goal is to get you the most money for your property, and she has different strategies to that end result.
I not only gained a new realtor, but in JIll, I also gained a friend! I will be forever grateful for her through this tough process and I know my Dad would have loved her! "Thanks," will never be enough! read less
