Fire ants are aggressive ants known for their painful stings and are commonly found in lawns, gardens, and other outdoor areas. They typically build visible soil mounds and large colonies, especially in warm, open areas around homes and businesses.

When their nests are disturbed, fire ants can become defensive and may sting people or pets. Their activity can make outdoor spaces uncomfortable and difficult to use.

If fire ants are becoming a recurring problem around your property, identifying the active colonies and treating the infestation properly can help reduce their presence and prevent the problem from spreading.

Indoors, under slabs, in wood, in soil, and in wall voids.

Sugars, proteins, grease, and other food sources.
