Nope, can't say I've encountered fire-ants but last year I was in the nether
reaches of a junkyard and the weeds and grass were so high I had to climb
onto the tops of cars a couple of times to get my bearings as I searched for
the front of the lot.  The most amusing yard, though, was one some friends
and I went to as teenagers.  The owner was apparently a farmer, as there were
(BIG) pigs roaming the place.  No sign to that effect, we were just startled
to round a corner and come face-to-snout with one.
