The key to controlling fire ants is understanding and using appropriate products and processes. Reach out to our team for a targeted solution that works for four months at a time.
Defining the Problem
Southwest Florida, where Florida Control, LLC, operates, is particularly vulnerable to fire ant infestation due to the heat, humidity, lush vegetation, and ample sunshine. Pair an environment with a wealth of resources with fire ants, and you have a problem. Have you experienced a fire ant attack? You know the essential nature of fire ant treatment.
The red imported fire ant (RIFA) is proactive in defense and reproduction. They attack with little reason and constantly reproduce. Fire ants are vicious attackers with unique venom and mandibles to bite down and hold on to as they sting repeatedly. They’ll keep stinging and moving in a circle until they’re physically removed, so the longer it takes to react, the worse the experience.
The area where the sting occurs will become a blister that lasts 5-7 days and fills with pus to resemble a blemish. However, some people will experience allergic reactions. An oral antihistamine and an anti-itch cream will do the job for most, but if you experience anaphylaxis, seek immediate medical treatment.
For a normal, non-allergic reaction, the best response to a fire ant attack is to remove the ants and wash the area with soap and water or an alcohol wipe as quickly as possible. Avoid picking at the blister. It could get infected or scarred.
How Fire Ant Control, LLC, Works
When you call Fire Ant Control, LLC, for service, expect us to arrive promptly and perform treatment without much interruption of your day. The bait we use is regulated and approved for applications in areas where people and animals live without requiring a wait time before re-entering.
The bait we apply is an insect growth inhibitor, which appeals to the fire ants like yummy food. They carry the bait to the queen, and the magic begins. She loses the ability to lay eggs, so as the living ants die over time, the colony does as well. No new ants rise to take their place.
Fire ants move around to survive rainy conditions, find resources, and establish new colonies when the winged males and females mature. Be sure to call us every four months to reapply bait. This practice will keep your property up to 95% fire ants-free.
