The real cost
What Happens When You Don't Treat
Fire ants don’t go away on their own. Colonies grow larger and multiply. A single colony can have 200,000+ ants. Beyond the painful stings (dangerous for allergic individuals), fire ant mounds damage lawn equipment and create bare spots that weeds colonize.

Common questions
Fire Ant Control Pricing FAQ
How much does fire ant treatment cost?
Fire ant control is an add-on starting around $49/month. Pricing depends on property size and infestation level.
Why can’t I just treat the mounds myself?
Treating individual mounds kills one colony, but neighboring colonies move into the cleared area. Yard-wide bait creates a barrier that prevents reinfestation. Professional programs include both approaches.
How fast does fire ant treatment work?
Individual mound treatments show results in 24-48 hours. Yard-wide bait takes 1-2 weeks for full colony elimination as ants carry the bait back to the queen.
