Of Wolf Spiders and Fire Ants

The momma Rabid Wolf Spider had her babies recently. Now you can see little spiderlings running all over our yard, clearly marked with the yellow abdominal stripes. They have been decreasing in number and, while I am quite happy that there won't be too many poisonous spiders running around my yard, I'm afraid that they have been fodder for the fire ants.
Either poisonous spiders or well-fed fire ants... neither sounds good.
