I watched a cool show about a fly that they were introducing. It lays it's egg inside the fire ant's torso, and when it hatches the larva basically eats the fire ant inside out from the head. The flys could decimate a colony in pretty short order.
The only question is whether the fly could survive the dry hot weather of the Southwest. I'd be interested to see how they are doing now.
