its nests up to 2 feet high and may contain up to 80,000 ants. It will also build hills

There are two methods available to obtain control of the Red Imported Fire Ant.
First of which is a method shown by Texas A&M to work effectively, is called the
Texas two step. This method involves an application of ant bait to the entire yard, then
subsequent treatments with a contact insecticide to kill mounds that are present or
reappear. This method is effective but the recurring treatments means you have to
continually buy baits and chemicals.

product produced by Bayer and only available to licensed operators. By applying Top
