Fire Ant Treatment Is the Same No Matter What
Fire Ants don’t care if you live in Orlando, Tampa, or Lakeland. They nest in almost any type of soil, but prefer open, sunny areas, such as meadows, pastures, parks, playgrounds, lawns and golf courses, as well as agricultural land and wilderness areas.
Fire ants are known to inflict painful stings to any other unwelcome insects that dare enter their realm. They seek out sources of protein such as meats, eggs, nuts, and even other insects. Fire ants can be deadly to sensitive populations of indigenous species.

Common Fire Ant Treatment
- Mound treatments address the immediate problem of existing fire ants through deep-reaching, targeted controls. Baits, such as AMDRO® Fire Ant Bait (Granules), treat the mound and disrupt the colony’s reproductive life cycle, killing the colony in about two weeks. The contact-killing granules of GardenTech® Over ‘n Out® Advanced Fire Ant Killer Mound Eliminator start work immediately to control mounds in 15 minutes, before ants can relocate.
- Full yard treatments control visible and hidden mounds, and proactively prevent new colonies or re-infestations from neighboring yards. AMDRO® Kills Fire Ants Yard Treatment Bait (Granules) blankets your yard with enticing bait that foraging ants take back through their underground labyrinths. The contact-killing formula in GardenTech® Over ‘n Out® Advanced Fire Ant Killer kills fire ant mounds in 15 minutes and provides six months of ongoing fire ant control.
