Fire Ant Treatment and Prevention
Texans are no strangers to a wide variety of bugs and pests that can cause damage to your lawn. While fire ants do negatively impact the health of the grass surrounding their nests, these red ants are more of a nuisance to people themselves. Let us help with fire ant treatment and prevention of these invasive pests.
Fire ants have an aggressive nature and will attack anything that disturbs their nest. Bites leave behind an instant sharp pain followed immediately by a burning sensation. After the burning subsides, the bite marks will begin to get increasingly itchy for the next two to three days. One singular bite may not be so bad, but fire ants are always in a group and will attack as a group. You will most likely leave any encounter with at least several bites.
How to Remove Existing Fire Ant Colonies
How do you enjoy your outdoors with the possibility of encountering fire ants? Simple. You can’t. It’s especially dangerous for those with children or pets who are frequently running around outside and playing in the yard. Your best solution for controlling these aggressive insects is a specialized pesticide lawn treatment.
You must be careful not to disturb the mound before treatment; otherwise, you risk an angry swarm of fire ants emerging. In many cases, this risk factor is why many Texans trust a pest control specialist to handle it. There are a couple of ways to go about ridding your lawn from fire ants. The DIY method with your local big box store diluted product or our professional products requiring state licensing is much, much more effective.
