That's encouraging, Charlie. I'm going to get my pest control guy to

Jim,
I would guess they are Black Garden Ants. Size is about right. They
usually nest underground but sometimes construct a mound. At least they are
not Fire Ants.

For some time now, I have been watching this scene develop. Between my
paved parking area and the adjoining fence, a large ant hill has
developed. The ants appear to be black and about 3/8 inch long. Before I
attempt to poison them, I thought I would ask these groups for advice.
A view of the ant hill:
