Southwest Florida and Fire Ants – Understanding the Problem
The humidity, heat, sun exposure, abundant vegetation, and plentiful moisture make Southwest Florida a proverbial Eden for fire ants. While they are an invasive species that have only been in the US for a little less than a century, their behavioral and nesting tendencies lend them to survival and abundant spread throughout the country’s southern half, especially the Sunshine State.
Wondering if you have a fire ant problem on your property? Don’t wait for the painful attack or expensive damage to occur! Instead, look around the property after your next hard rain. If you see flat-topped mounds of loose dirt near taller features like patios, logs, posts, or trees, you have a fire ant problem that needs to be addressed ASAP. Cue Fire Ant Control, LLC!
The penalty paid for stumbling across fire ants unawares is painful. Hundreds will attack in unison, climbing, attaching, and stinging repeatedly. Fire ants have a one-of-a-kind venom that will itch, sting, and ultimately create a blister that lingers for a week or so in mild cases. The consequences for those with an allergy to the venom are much worse.
During dry or cold weather, you may not see any mounds, but the absence of mounds does not equal an absence of fire ants. They can live feet below the surface, expanding the population and the tunnels they live in. Retreating underground is exactly what they’ll do during extreme temperatures or dry conditions. Or worse, they’ll invade a better source of moisture, food, and comfort – like your pantry.
The Effectiveness of Fire Ant Control, LLC
The effective nature of the treatment that we provide at Fire Ant Control, LLC, comes from a deep understanding of our enemy and the use of robust supplies and strategic bait placement. Scavenging ants perceive the bait as food; they take it to their queen, who enjoys the taste. The result is a sterile queen and no more fire ants to replace the ones that die. Over a single life cycle, the fire ant colony will dwindle to practically zero.
We offer a money-back guarantee that your property will remain at least 85% free of fire ants with routine treatment every four months.
Fire ants are mobile, traveling to mate and establish new colonies. Even after eradication, the issue will return in this area where fire ants are ubiquitous. That’s why you must schedule repeat treatments to maintain appropriate protection.
