Fire ants can be a big problem for property owners in Texas. These ants bite, leaving a painful and itchy bump that sometimes turns into a blister. If your property is infested with fire ants, you'll want to be extra careful when using your lawn or letting your pets use it to avoid stepping in a mound. To eliminate them from your lawn, the best thing you can do is hire professionals. They will treat your lawn with effective treatments and take the proper safety precautions while doing so. Before hiring a company to take care of the fire ants on your property, make sure that they will use a long-lasting treatment that will provide protection for an entire year!


Be very careful when using your lawn or letting your pets use your lawn if fire ants are present.

A fire ant infestation poses a hazard to not only yourself and your family but to your pets as well! If you believe your lawn has fire ants, use extreme caution when spending time in it. Fire ants feel vibrations in the ground and if they sense that their nest might be in danger, they'll act quickly and aggressively. They will bite, and their bites are quite painful and itchy and can even cause blisters on both humans and animals. Because of this, you want to make sure you watch where you're stepping so you don't step near or on a mound.


Hire professionals to get rid of fire ants!

Hiring professionals to eliminate fire ants from your lawn will keep you protected from possible bites and ensure your lawn is safe for everyone again. When they infest your lawn, fire ants are not only dangerous but they are also very difficult to get rid of, so calling on the help of professionals is the best way to ensure the job is done right. Fire ants build their nest underground and are only visible after rain floods the nest, forcing them to build up. This means there could be several colonies or nests that you're not aware of. Professionals will take the proper safety precautions and use treatments that are proven to work, eliminating all nests both above and underground.


Make sure the company you hire to deal with fire ants uses a treatment that will provide long-lasting protection.

Because fire ants can be such a problem, you'll want to make sure that the company you hire to deal with them will provide you with lasting results. Many fire ant treatments that are designed to eliminate current infestations also work as a preventative measure. So, make sure you hire a company that uses a product that will both treat current infestations and prevent future ones. You'll also want to make sure the treatment will last for a long time, so look for a company that uses a product that will provide protection for an entire year. By looking for things before hiring a company, you can expect that your lawn will be free of fire ants for the foreseeable future!

To keep your lawn free of fire ants throughout every season, look for a company that offers a treatment that will last for the entire year.
