Went and looked it up. diazinon is illegal now. Stuff worked like a dream on fire ants tho. Never had a mound survive an application.

I think it is still legal for sale for certain agricultural uses, but not residential or commericial non-ag uses, such as killing fire ants. IIRC, the golf courses used a lot of it, and there were concerns about killing birds.
