Key Takeaways
Expert Fire Ant Control in Austin, TX
ABC Home & Commercial Services provides advanced, colony-level fire ant eradication for residential properties throughout Austin. Directed by Alan Brown, BCE, and operational leader Holt Myers, our fire ant specialists utilize a scientific "broadcast" methodology.
Colony Eradication and Mechanical Defense
Alan Brown, a Board Certified Entomologist (BCE) and Texas A&M University graduate, ensures our fire ant protocols target the colony’s social structure and the Queen, rather than just spot-treating visible mounds.
The Foundation Integrity Audit for Ant Defense
Under the direction of Holt Myers, our technicians perform a Foundation Integrity Audit of your property to identify high-risk areas—such as electrical boxes and foundations—where fire ants frequently cause damage. Holt applies his Construction Management training from Louisiana State University (LSU) to ensure ant activity doesn’t compromise your mechanical systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why shouldn't I just "kick" a fire ant mound and spray it?
Disturbing a mound often causes the colony to “split” or move the Queen deeper. Our broadcast methodology, led by Alan Brown, BCE, uses baits that ants carry back to the Queen, ensuring the entire colony is eliminated.
Can fire ants damage my home's electrical systems?
Yes. Fire ants are attracted to electrical currents. Under the direction of Holt Myers, our Foundation Integrity Audit identifies high-risk electrical boxes and foundation entry points to protect your mechanical infrastructure.
