The #1 pest in the Southeast has finally met its match! FAS has treated hundreds of thousands of acres for fire ants over the last 25+ years with tremendous success.
FAS is the original and largest fire ant control company in Florida.
FAS’s custom application service is guaranteed. We use a safe and effective process that will eliminate the worry of fire ants from your farm, nursery, home or business. Other companies may use contact poisons that only get the surface ants. Unfortunately, that only lasts up to 30 days and is very expensive. With only two treatments per year and our seasonal guarantee, our system works deep to get at the ants you can’t see. Not only will you save a lot of money, you will believe that fire ants can be controlled. And we guarantee those results. If part or all of your treated property is re-infested (after allowing the process to work) and it’s well before your next treatment, we will come back and retreat that area at no cost to you.
FAS is located in Marion County, and with our satellite office located in Sarasota, we are able to cover all of Central and North Central Florida.
We treat nurseries, horse farms, municipalities, cemeteries, athletic fields, and a wide variety of other commercial property.
We provide wall-to-wall exact application rates with speed and accuracy and with a minimum of interference to your operation. We can treat up to 1,000 per day and can also provide weekend applications when your workers are not present. Our business is protecting your business, home, loved ones, pets, and stock.

Ocala – Gainesville – Williston – Inverness – Groveland – Leesburg – Brooksville – Tampa – Bradenton – Sarasota – Arcadia – Venice
