Fire Ants

Submitted by GardenGirl on Fri, 08/25/2006 - 08:03.

These red ants may just be ¼ inches long, their bites can be very painful and dangerous, when suffering from many bites at the same time. As a result, many homeowners want to rid their property of Fire Ants. Now, these ants can build up colonies that are one or two feet high, housing thousands of these Fire Ants. Controlling the spread of these Ants can be very difficult as thousands can be killed and more will still appear in coming weeks.  



The best thing you can do to help rid your property of these Fire Ants is to call in an exterminator to help remove the mounds where these ants reside and kill any ants that may live there. However, chances are the ants will resurface again in the near future and calling in an exterminator every two or three weeks can get very expensive. Thus, you may want to travel to your local home improvement store and get a product that has been designed specifically to kill Fire Ants. When dealing with fire ants, it is important to have constant treatment so that they do not reappear in large quantities.
