Fire Ant Control in Waco, TX
If you've lived in Texas long, you're probably familiar with the painful bite of a fire ant. They build unsightly mounds in our yards, and their bites sure do hurt. If you are looking for fire ant control in Waco, you can trust the locally-owned company that has been keeping Central Texans pest-free for generations: ABC Home & Commercial Services.
How ABC’s Fire Ant Service Works
There are two primary steps in our fire ant control methodology. First, we want to get a clear picture of what kind of fire ant problem you’re facing. Our licensed pest control specialists will inspect all areas of your home where fire ants are likely to live, identify any conditions in and around your home that may be contributing to the problem, and guide you on what to do to correct these conditions.
Next, a fire ant control specialist will treat your home based on the inspector’s report. Our preliminary treatment takes into account fire ant behavior and biology, while 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.
Central Texas Fire Ants: A Big Problem
Although any Texas home will likely have ants of some kind, fire ants are a particularly dominant species in Central Texas. They will attack any other ants they find with powerful and toxic venom, giving them minimal competition as they breed and expand their territory.
A fire ant sting may 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 a swarm of bites; and some people even have an allergic reaction to fire ant bites that requires medical attention.

“Joyner was wonderful - showed up for a service call - I Mentioned I had a hard time with the stairs and directed him to the closet up there. When he was done with the work, he mentioned he reset everything and wanted to save me a trip upstairs,mentioning he caught that I had problems with my back. It was a simple thing maybe, but super thoughtful to me. We love ABC and would recommend them for anything. Just this month we’ve had excellent service from Paul (super thorough and knowledgeable, helped us solve some problems across departments)in their lawn department and worked with Ty from their handyman services who did also did a fabulous job. Excellent company to do business with - just wonderful people.”
