Fire Ant Solutions for Farms
Fire ant infestations on farms can be devastating, making the solutions provided by Fire Ant Control, LLC, incredibly beneficial to agricultural properties, as well as other types of properties.
Invasive insects, such as the Red Imported Fire Ant (RIFA), pose a substantial pest problem, particularly in the southeastern United States. Damage to crops, equipment, livestock, and workers can be costly and threaten productivity, profit, and schedules. Rely on Fire Ant Control, LLC, for a comprehensive, sustainable, and practical approach to mitigate fire ants, minimize economic expense, and maximize the treatment.
Fire Ants versus Farms
Fire ants and farms are an unhealthy combination. They will quickly colonize large spaces because they’re aggressive in breeding and defense, while also strong in the face of environmental challenges. The aggressive and hardy nature of fire ants makes them a difficult species to treat. They’re not native to the US either, so they have no natural limitations. They thrive in the subtropical climate of Southwest Florida, and fire ants pose a significant threat to farms, nurseries, ranches, and other agricultural operations. Address these risks by booking Fire Ant Control, LLC.

Long-Term and Large-Scale Control
Agricultural properties require treatments that provide solutions for a more extended period over a large area. Fire Ant Control, LLC, employs a proven method that utilizes granular bait, which appeals to red imported fire ants as food and remains effective for four-month periods. Our professionals know how to apply this bait most efficiently, attracting scavenging ants without disrupting the larger ecological balance. The worker ants carry the “food” to the queen; she becomes infertile, and the colony dwindles to nothing throughout a single life cycle.
Within about a month, we can achieve at least 85% fire ant protection that will last for long periods. With retreatment every four months, the property will remain protected, up to 99% fire-ant free. The bait will be consumed over time, and fire ants are mobile. Retreatment is essential, and we recommend a three-time-per-year schedule for maximum effectiveness. We require it for our money-back guarantee to take effect.
Fire Ant Control, LLC, operates in tandem with our sister companies. We can treat up to 1,000 acres per day, covering the entire quarantined area. This level of service is optimal for agricultural-type properties—our service targets explicitly the Southwest Florida region.
Property Maintenance
Farms that are well-maintained are less welcoming to fire ants and easier to protect from them. Routine mowing, irrigation management, grazing rotations, and erosion control are all essential for fire ant management and ecological protection.
Fire ants pose a serious issue for farms, but with professional assistance, the problem can be effectively addressed. Rather than adding another task to an already overwhelming list of objectives, delegate it to the experts. Our work is proven, and we guarantee it. We will not interfere with your daily tasks or damage the property in the process.
