In 1993, we decided to open a comprehensive pest control company. But it didn’t take too long until we realized we wanted to be specialists. Our home office is in Ocala and that’s a city with lots of horse farmers. We soon discovered that fire ants were causing them some serious heart ache.

They felt overwhelmed and incapable of fighting the battle with any kind of success. So, we did our research and developed a proven granular bait to save their pastures and their horses. For more than 30 years we have been battling these tiny terrors so you don’t have to.

Tiny Terrors?

The Solenopsis invicta, red imported fire ant, is indeed a tiny terror. Certainly you’ve seen how small fire ants are. But did you know that each colony can hold up to 500,000 members as far as 25 feet below the surface?

Did you know that even though the worker ants have short lifespans, the queen is steadily able to lay 800 eggs a day to replace every worker that perishes? Now their size seems less important, doesn’t it?

They are indeed tiny terrors because people and animals actually die from their stings. And because they are like their own little militaries, they will gladly sting something repeatedly and en masse.

Animals are scared to go to their feed and water troughs because of the pain inflicted upon them. Kids are scared to play in their own yards for the same reasons. Fire ants terrorize the people they attempt to coexist with.

Take ‘Em Out!

You have to take ‘em out in order to exist in peace on your own land. Fire Ant Specialists can help you do just that. Our proprietary bait is highly effective because we designed it to eliminate the source, the queen.

While other treatments will take out the surface level worker ants, our bait targets the queen. She is hidden well beneath the surface and can live as long as seven years. That’s a long time to be held hostage by these tiny terrors.

When Fire Ant Specialists treat your property 2-3 times a year, you will see a 99% ant free space. That’s exactly what you want because their stings aren’t the only weapon they have. They can cause short circuits in your HVAC and well-pumps and they can cause structures to topple or collapse due to their extensively excavated tunnels.

We take out the queen with our bait by making her sterile. When she can’t replace her workers she will eventually starve. Because this takes some time, there’s not any warning for the colony to send out its winged replacements. That means they don’t just pop up somewhere else on your land.

When you learn about Solenopsis invicta you realize just how dangerous this invasive species is. That makes contacting experts all the more important. This is why Fire Ant Specialists is here for you. We understand how serious this war is and we want to win every battle on each piece of property we treat.
