Schedule Free EstimateWhy the mound you killed came back
Here's the thing about pouring something on a fire ant mound: the mound is just the front porch. The colony runs deep, and the queen is nowhere near the part you can see. Disturb it and the colony does what fire ants do best. It moves ten feet over and starts again. That's why the bag from the big box store turns into a yearly subscription to frustration.
We treat the entire yard with a broadcast bait the workers carry down to the queen. It's slower than the dramatic boiling-water stuff (give it a couple of weeks to fully work through), but it kills colonies instead of relocating them. That's how we can put a 12-month guarantee on it with a straight face.

- ✓Reaches the queen, which is the only kill that counts
- ✓Guaranteed 12 months: new mounds within the year get re-treated free
- ✓Starts at $25 per quarter for a typical yard, sized to your lot at a free estimate
- ✓Safe for kids and pets once the granules settle; we keep them off the lawn during application, and waiting 24 hours covers the most cautious product label out there
What we treat
Fire ants don't respect property lines. Neither does our treatment - we cover every inch.
Home lawns
Front, back, and sides, fence line to fence line. The whole property gets covered, because the ants don't respect your landscaping plan.
Play areas
Swing sets, trampolines, and sandboxes get priority attention. This is the reason most folks call us in the first place.
Flower beds and gardens
Mounds love mulch beds. We treat them with placement that protects the plants and the pollinators.
Pastures and large lots
Acreage in Chelsea, Helena, or out past Alabaster? Broadcast equipment scales, and larger lots are quoted by size at the free estimate.
Commercial grounds
Office parks, churches, and ballfields. A customer or member taking a dozen stings on your property is a bad day for everybody.
Problem re-checks
Under guarantee, new mounds get treated free. No arguing, no fine print, no "that's a different colony" excuse.
From yard assessment to 12 months of cover
Yard assessment
We size the lot, count active mounds, and check the neighbors' fence lines (reinvasion comes from somewhere).
Broadcast treatment
Professional-grade bait spread evenly across the property. Workers forage it within hours.
The quiet kill
Over 1 to 3 weeks the bait works through each colony to the queen. Mounds go still and stay still.
12 months of cover
New mound shows up in month 7? Call. We treat it free. That's the whole policy.
Four reasons the guarantee holds up
The guarantee is real
A full year, in writing. Most companies guarantee fire ant work for 90 days, if at all. Ask them. Then ask why.
Right product, right dose
Pro-grade baits you can't get at the hardware store, applied at label rate by people who do it every week.
We know Alabama yards
Fire ants thrive in exactly our climate, and they explode in new-construction neighborhoods where the soil's been disturbed. We treat accordingly.
Honest scope
Fire ant control is its own program, not a forced bundle. If you also want general pest control, great, but we won't pretend you need both.
