Positive consequence of Katrina?

So much for the tales of rolling balls of ants in the flood water. I guess they don't handle the brackish and salty water so well now do you ants?
The fire ant deaths apparently are due to the salty or brackish water that
flooded the coast. Fire ants deal with floods by clumping into a floating ball.
Many die, but many survive.

Scientists: Katrina killed fire ants; act now to keep them out
