Need professional help with your ant problem?

Controlling ants in structures needn't be so difficult. To achieve success, you want to follow a couple of basic rules:

1. Identify the species of ant involved. (Critical)

2. Perform a thorough inspection.

3. Determine where the ant colonies are located.

4. Treat the ant colonies directly if possible.

5. Use baits for ant colonies that cannot be treated directly.

It is not always possible to seek out where the ant colony is located. In this case, bait insecticides placed directly in the path of ants or where ants can find them are very effective and can save a tremendous amount of time.

So after identification of the problem, the steps which are to be taken are as follows:

1. Once the species of ants are identified, for example here we are referring to Fire ants which are very harmful to our health. Fire ants are a major health threat because of their stings

2. Once it’s confirmed what kind of species we are dealing with, the professionals will conduct a thorough inspection of the site as finding the main colony of fire ants is very crucial.

3. Regular outdoor applications of pesticides to lawns and foundations are often necessary because re-infestation from neighboring properties is common. The key to fire ant control is to locate all mounds and treat them and then prevent their re-occurrence with Insect Growth Regulators.

4. So for treating the ant colonies mounds can be treated by drenching with liquid insecticides such as Demon WP or Talstar or by baiting such as with Advion Fire Ant Bait contains Indoxacarb.

5. Advion Fire Ant Bait is the fastest active Fire Ant bait on the market and kills all life forms of ants within 72 hours of application. Indoxacarb is carried by back to the ant mounds by the workers and then fed to the ant population. It is then spread throughout the colony using food sharing by the worker ants. This slowly wipes out the whole population including the queens. Indoxacarb is non-repellent to the ants which implies that they can't sense that there's a pesticide or toxicant present which greatly encourages feeding and therefore the consumption of the bait.

An Application of a fire ant bait containing a growth regulator like Award II fire ant Bait to the whole lawn helps limit re-infestation of treated areas. This works especially well on large lawns, acreages, golf courses, pastures, etc. An outdoor perimeter application of a liquid insecticide helps to prevent their entry into homes. In slab foundations, fire ants can nest indoors in wall voids by entering the structure from below and following plumbing lines in. Bath traps, shower stalls, and water heater walls are particularly well-matched areas for fire ants.
