How We Treat Fire Ants in Houston
Fire ants, like any ant species, live in colonies made up of male ants, worker ants and a Queen ant. These pests can be drawn inside for food and nesting, and are known to be aggressive when they are disturbed. That’s why it is not recommended to treat the situation on your own.
By thoroughly inspecting your home inside and out, our highly trained technicians are able to identify any current fire ant problems or potential problem areas that you may have and treat those issues accordingly. We use the least invasive pest control techniques to keep your home and yard fire ant free.

One of the most characteristic behaviors of the fire ant is its aggressive response to nest disturbance including a vigorous and painful sting. Although they do hurt a lot, fire ant stings are not likely to be extremely harmful—except for the small percentage of people who are allergic to the venom they inject. For these people a sting can be lethal if not treated right away.

How Large are Fire Ant Colonies?
Fire ants often prefer to reside in massive cities that are made up of more than 250,000 worker ants in each group. The reason fire ants are able to live in such large colonies is that they reproduce very quickly. In fact, one queen ant can lay up to 1,600 eggs in just one day!

Can I Treat Fire Ants Myself?
It’s not recommended. Fire ants can usually determine when a repellant is sprayed and avoid it. So while you will have some dead ants, the fire ants that avoided the spray will often start new colonies with new queens, causing you a bigger headache.
