Fire Ant Control in Austin, TX
Texas homeowners are all too familiar with painful bites from fire ants. Unsightly mounds in our yards is another reason to get these creatures off our property. If you are looking for fire ant control in Austin, you can trust the locally-owned company that has been keeping Central Texans pest-free for generations: ABC Home & Commercial Services. Our licensed pros deliver effective solutions so you don't have to worry about getting stung.
How ABC’s Fire Ant Service Works
There are two primary steps in our fire ant control methodology. The first step is getting a clear picture of the fire ant problem you’re facing. Our licensed pest control specialists will inspect the areas of your home where fire ants are likely to live. The inspector will also identify any conditions in and around your home that may be contributing to your fire ant problem and let you know the steps to take to correct the condition.
The next step is for a fire ant control specialist to treat your home based on the inspector’s report. The preliminary treatment takes into account fire ant behavior and biology, and ongoing treatment will include highly effective fire ant bait and liquid barriers. Our goal is to have your home fire ant free.
The ABC Process
1. Contact ABC
When you contact us, we will schedule an inspection to get an understanding of the problem. In some cases, we can give you a quote over the phone.
2. Get An Estimate
If you have an inspection, we will send you a custom treatment plan and estimate afterward. Once we get your approval, we will schedule your treatment.
3. Treatment
We will come to your property and treat for pests in common hiding and nesting areas. Over time, you will start seeing less and less pest activity.
4. Prevention
Customers with our ongoing pest management services will receive periodic retreatments to prevent the return of the most common pests in our area.
The Problem with Central Texas Fire Ants
Although any Central Texas home will likely have ants of some kind, fire ants are a particularly dominant species. They will attack any other ants they find with powerful and toxic venom so that they have minimal competition as they breed and expand their territory.
A fire ant sting will hurt, but the bigger problem is that if you are unlucky enough to step in a fire ant mound, you may not get just one bite, but instead a swarm of bites. Some people have an allergic reaction to fire ant bites that may require medical attention.

“We had a great experience with ABC Home and Commercial Services! Our technician, Eddy, was fantastic—super nice, very knowledgeable, and took the time to answer all of our questions. He did a thorough job taking care of our home, and we really appreciated his professionalism. One thing I especially love about ABC is that they send a detailed report after the visit with their findings and recommendations—such a great touch. Overall, we're extremely pleased and would absolutely recommend Eddy and ABC to anyone needing their services. We'll definitely be using them again in the future!”

“Ales did an amazing job with our consult appointment and we ended up contracting with ABC for an install on a water treatment system. He’s was timely, friendly, and completely professional. In fact, he answered questions that other estimators and sales reps from other companies left unanswered, and it was quite apparent that he was being more truthful and honest in his recommendations than some of the other companies we got estimates from. I greatly appreciate that he did not try to sell us on something that we did not need, or on an application that would not work on our property. We live in an older home that is definitely a fixer-upper, and we will definitely be calling on ABC Home and Commercial Services in the future for estimates on other projects. If you are in the market for a water treatment system for your home, or a number of other upgrades, you should definitely reach out to this company.”
