Because we have been in business since 1993, we have learned a good deal about our enemy.
Who Is the Enemy?
Solenopsis invicta, or the red imported fire ant, is our current target. These troops invaded our continent in the 1930s.
They arrived, stealthily, on boats coming from South America. These boats were bringing goods into the Port of Mobile. Solenopsis invicta, looking for climates similar to its native environment, chose to stay in the southeastern part of the country.
Because their queens can lay 1,000 eggs a day, and colonies can be home to hundreds of thousands of ants, they quickly spread.
The alates, or winged versions, performed a mid-air mating ritual sometime after a nice rain when the temperature was between 70–95 degrees. There was little wind that day and lots of humidity.
The males died very shortly after, but the females landed on the ground and ripped off their own wings. They set out to start a colony. Those that weren’t victims of predators located a place and dug down to create a chamber for themselves. There, they laid their first 25 eggs.
And the process of establishing an empire began. The colony increased to numbers we have already mentioned, and the depths of its tunnels could stretch thirty feet beneath the surface.
How Do You Fight Them?
Now that we have painted the picture of the enemy, you need to know how to fight them. Utilizing the expertise of Fire Ant Specialists is your best choice. However, we understand that many people like to try DIY methods first.
We have taken a look at some of those suggestions and would like to at least educate you a little bit about them before you waste time and money.
Yes, some of them will kill ants. We are not denying that. But the issue is the queen, not the workers. When you burn them, boil them, or pour any other thing on them, you are only killing the ones you make contact with. That is not too far beneath the surface.
The queen is in there deep. She never leaves her chamber. You have to get to her to end the repopulation process. Fire Ant Specialists can do that.
With our specially formulated bait, the worker ants are enticed to bring the granules back to the queen. She ingests it and, thanks to its slow-release design, she becomes sterile. The worker ants will only live four to six weeks.
Knowing this, Fire Ant Specialists is able to tell you when to expect results. We can guarantee them, and if we miss the date a bit, we will come back and spot treat for free.
