Methods comprising providing a treatment fluid that comprises using an aqueous base fluid, a synthetic cationic gelling agent, a plurality of particulates, and an organic acid. The treatment fluid is then introduced into at least a portion of a subterranean formation having a temperature of above about 275° F. wherein the particulates are deposited into the subterranean and the treatment fluid form at least one void in the subterranean formation itself. The viscosity of the treatment fluid in the subterranean formation is greater than about 20 cP for at least 20 minutes at temperatures higher than about 275° F.
