How Can You Tell if they are Fire Ants?

The most aggressive fire ant species in the U.S. is the red imported fire ant, accidentally introduced over 100 years ago and now prevalent across the South. Identifying a fire ant infestation in your Fort Worth yard is straightforward - just look for reddish-brown ants with a narrow, pinched waist. Disturbing one of their mounds and feeling the searing, burning pain of multiple stings is another clear sign, but nobody wants to learn that way!

With expert care and attention to detail, we'll make your yard safe for barefoot living again.

What Should You Do If You Get Bitten By a Fire Ant?

When fire ants sting, you know it immediately. Their venom causes circular, itchy red welts that burn painfully. Most people have a minor reaction, but some can be highly allergic to the stings. Fire ants are aggressive and will repeatedly attack until removed from skin.

If you've been stung, first wash the area with cold water and soap to remove any lingering ants and clean the skin. Take an oral antihistamine to reduce itching, swelling and discomfort. Applying a cold compress can further soothe the sting site. These simple at-home treatments should provide relief for mild reactions. However, monitor the area closely for signs of a more serious reaction, including excessive swelling, shortness of breath, dizziness or other concerning symptoms. Seek prompt medical attention if you experience a severe reaction. Don't take chances with fire ant stings.

The best solution is preventing exposure in the first place. Call Mosquito Squad of Fort Worth to treat your yard and eliminate these aggressive pests. With our expert fire ant control, you can enjoy your outdoor space again without worrying about painful stings.
