Memphis Fire Ant Treatment: Rid Your Home of Fire Ants
Here in the South we have hot, humid summers. With those summers comes a particularly pesky pest, the fire ant. If you’ve ever experienced a fire ant sting, you know how painful it can be. Fire ants like to build their mounds in the summer but do not necessarily hibernate in the winter. They like to build their nests under logs, rocks or piles of bricks but will build in open areas as well. Those nests typically look like mounds of fresh dirt. If disturbed, they will swarm out onto the surface. If you step in an ant mound, you will most likely get stung more than once.
It’s very important to keep small children away from these ants. These ants are much more aggressive than other ants and will definitely sting if disturbed.
