How Fire Ant Treatment Works

Emerald Lawns has the experience and industry expertise to understand fire ant control. Here is a guide through our process to ensure your outdoor spaces are safe from fire ant infestations.
  • Step 1: Property Inspection
  • Step 2: Apply Fire Ant Treatment
  • Step 3: Monitor and Maintain

Step 1

Property Inspection

Our pest control specialists will thoroughly inspect your lawn to locate fire ant mounds and identify high-activity areas. 

Step 2

Apply Fire Ant Treatment

We apply two treatments to protect your outdoor spaces against fire ants:

  • Granular Bait: We place granular bait throughout your lawn. The ants carry the bait back to the colony, effectively eliminating the queen and other ants over time.
  • Liquid Treatment: We apply a targeted mound treatment designed to kill ants on contact. This step is especially effective for larger colonies.

Step 3

Monitor and Maintain

We monitor your lawn to ensure effective treatment. If you see fire ants before your next scheduled application, we will provide a complimentary visit to address the issue promptly. 

Defend Your Yard with Our Fire Ant Treatment Program

The average fire ant colony has up to 200,000 ants and has a handful of queens that lay 800 eggs daily. With Emerald Lawns, you can bring those numbers down and remain fire ant-free year-round. 


  • Late Winter
  • Fall

Late Winter

Fire ants tend to be highly active in spring as they emerge from winter dormancy. Scheduling treatment as early as March can target their growing colonies and prevent rapid population expansion. Our pest control specialist will apply granular and liquid treatments in strategic areas of your property.

Fall

From September to November, fire ants are busy foraging to prepare for winter. Treatments during this period ensure the bait or insecticides are returned to the colony. This can effectively eliminate potential infestations before the colder months.
