Fire Ant & Ant Control in Baton Rouge, LA
Fire ants are everywhere in south Louisiana lawns, and their stings are more than a nuisance for children and pets. Indoors, sugar ants and carpenter ants follow food and moisture.
Request pest controlFire ant mounds
Mounds pop up after rain, often overnight. Disturbing one sends hundreds of ants out to sting.
Broadcast baits
Baits spread across the whole yard are carried back to colonies, reaching queens that mound treatments miss.
Mound treatments
Treating individual mounds gives fast results near play areas and walkways.
Sugar ants
Small ants trailing to the kitchen are after sweets and grease. Baits work better than sprays, which can split colonies.
Carpenter ants
Large black ants and small piles of sawdust point to carpenter ants nesting in damp wood.
Moisture
Ants nesting inside often mean a leak or damp wood somewhere nearby.
Pets and kids
Ask how long to keep pets off treated areas and which products are used.
After floods
Fire ants form floating rafts in floodwater and can end up on porches and in debris.
