Ants Outside DFW Residence by- Bullseye Pest Management

Severe Ant Infestations

“If it weren’t for the electrician commenting about the ant activity inside the outlet on the opposite side of that wall, the customer might have continued to think it was just a few ants” Certified Applicator and business Owner / Operator for Bullseye Pest Management in Arlington,  Steve Moseley commented. He was out on a recent job to deal with ants. They were discovered by the electrician that was in the home. They were in the outlet and around the wires. 

Ants can be attracted to electrical lines and electrical stuff. Since Ants are attracted to warm areas, that could possibly be why they are there. Ants are a natural part of the ecosystem, and they're important for the survival of other creatures. But sometimes ant infestations can become a problem. Acrobat Ants and Argentine Ants are two of the most common types of ants, and they can cause a lot of damage. 

“Once I found the trail, I began treating, and that's what began emerging from the walls. I see this all too often. Ant infestations that have gone unchecked for quite some time.” said Steve.  “That property had both severe Argentine and Acrobat Ant infestations.” Steve continued, “It's not uncommon for those ants to get into soffit areas and into wall voids, which is what happened here.”

Severe Ant Infestation

The Argentine Ant (Linepithema humile) is native to Northern Argentina, among other countries. One of the worst troubles of home-infesting ants. Acrobat ants (Crematogaster spp.), when disturbed, can acrobatically raise their abdomen over their thorax and head. Acrobat Ants are especially destructive, because they're able to climb walls and hang from ceilings. Argentine Ants are also troublesome, because they're able to sting humans.

Knowing what kind of ant you're looking at is important for understanding the bigger picture of what the infestation is and how to treat it, but also how to manage and prevent it.

Bullseye Pest Management is available to help you with your ant problem. Certified Applicator and owner / operator Steve Moseley had this to say about this particular lone ant, and how he was an indication of a bigger concern.

"This video is a lone scout Carpenter Ant. Taken while performing a Wood Destroying Insect Report for a customer. An important and recognized wood destroying organism by the Texas Department of Agriculture, the carpenter ant often makes galleries in the wood to raise their younglings. Easy to identify, the carpenter ant is one of the largest ants we have in our area. Paying close attention to the foliage around the property that is next to the structure when treating will insure complete control, as these ants are often found in with shrubs and trees, etc."

This ant could be a bigger indicator of the presence of Wood Destroying Insects. Call Steve at Bullseye Pest Management locally at 682-472-4435 or toll free from anywhere across DFW and beyond at 800-466-4451 for accurate identification and the best treatment.

Acrobat Ants in Dallas / Fort Worth, Texas

"The first video is Acrobat Ants that have infested the eaves and soffit areas of the customer's home. When disturbed, they come out to investigate by the thousands, including the swarmer’s, or winged reproductive casts. The sight can be a little overwhelming for some home owners to witness, but the control measures are usually effective within an hour or so."

Fire Ant Pest Control in Burleson TX

Bullseye Pest Management can handle all manner of ant infestation.

Fire Ants are not only renowned for their fire-like sting when they bite, but are also amazingly destructive. Fire Ants if not exterminated can destroy crops, damage irrigation systems in yards and gardens, ravage seeded fields and wreak havoc on livestock and local wildlife. Fire Ants are especially attracted to fields generated by electrical conductivity and they infest and destroy electrical boxes, circuits, switching mechanisms and electricity junctions. This behavior of fire ants leads them to destroy air conditioning systems, lawn lighting systems, outdoor circuit boxes and meters. In the United States alone fire ant damage is estimated at one billion dollars a year, which is considerably more than the damage caused by Boll Weevils and only a half billion behind damage estimated to be caused by Termites.

Do not take a chance on the safety of your children, yourself or your neighbors. Don't fool yourself into thinking that if the fire ants are left alone they'll not be dangerous - they can just as easily destroy valuable electronics and foundations on your property as attack you, your loved ones or your pets.
