Signs of Fire Ant Activity

To effectively manage fire ants, early detection is crucial. Look for the following signs:

  • Appearances: Copper brown in colour with a dark abdomen. They are quite small measuring between 2-6mm.
  • Mounds: Fire ants build large, dome-shaped mounds that can reach up to 18 inches in height. There can be a variety of sizes found within the one nest. No visible entry or exit points.
  • Trails: Fire ants often travel in visible trails between food sources and their nests.
  • Stings: Painful, red, swollen, severe burning stings with pain that can last up to and hour or even cause a severe or anaphylactic reaction.

WARNING - Be careful not to get too close as Fire Ants are aggressive and can swarm to attack and repeatedly sting you when disturbed.

Fire Ant Pest Control Treatment

At D-Tec Pest Solutions, our certified Fire Ant control technicians use a combination of methods and techniques to effectively treat a Fire Ant infestation. Our technicians can directly inject the nest with insecticides to target and eradicate colonies. We also utilise insecticidal baits spread across affected areas. Furthermore, D-Tec can offer a preventative treatment as a 6-monthly maintenance program that is not affected by rain, heat or cold that inhibits the development and reproduction of fire ant populations.

Our pest control professionals follow precise procedures during fire ant treatments, which include accurate identification and targeted application of treatment methods.

To ensure safety for humans and animals, technicians wear personal protective equipment, adhere to stringent application guidelines, and properly notify the National Fire Ant Eradication program of the treated areas to help stop the spread of Fire Ants.
