Gasoline and gardening (was Urginia, Uli and Jim)

A lady friend I once knew played with petrol & got it on herself & was engulfed with vapour fire & burned to death. I suggest no one tries it under any circumstances !
It will also rarely kill the queen hide & the ants will reappear anyway.
Someone told me to try a mix of borax & sugar, but I'm not sure if it works or not.

I'm reminded of a case in the newspapers where clever well qualified person managed to kill themselves lighting a garden bonfire with a can of petrol (gasoline). Seemingly the catch is that the vapour spreads at ground level, by the time you light the match you're standing in the middle of a cloud of gas.
