The Fire Ant Control Team, Inc. is reporting on the results of some of our customers. The Fire Ant Control Team, Inc. became a service pesticide company that specializes in the treatment of fire ants last May 2009. We treat each individual fire ant mound with our patented fire ant trap. We are the only pesticide company in the nation that eradicates fire ants this way. We do not enlist broadcasting or drenching as a treatment, instead we use small amounts of bait pesticide with our patented traps. We clean up any residual pesticide so our environment is protected as well as our wildlife. We are proud to show the results as a way the public can have an option to broadcasting or drenching pesticides. We feel confident that the environment, wildlife, pets, and children will not be affected by pesticides and fire ants by using our mound treatment program.

Over 100 fire ant mounds are dead and gone

Hello again,
just to update on two of my customers,our school we are doing ,we have gotten rid of 100+ fire ant mound since we started in mid May. Even after we had around 4 inches of rain over the weekend,we only found 2 new small mounds. It has rain on and off for the last6-8 weeks, but i have been able to eradicate these mounds safely and not pollute everything and save the birds from getting into fire ant pesticides. The other customer on an acre of land, we have eradicate over 53 fire ant mounds since May and found only 1 new fire ant mound this week after this heavy rain in their yard. This is great! Our fire ant trap works and saves the environment and works in the rain.

ScienceDaily (2007-09-17) -- Red imported fire ants may be killing as many as a fifth of baby song birds before they leave the nest, according to new research. Of the nests where there was no pesticide treatment protecting the baby birds from fire ants, only 10 percent of the young birds fledged and were able to leave the nests. Of the treated nests 32 percent of the baby birds fledged

This is a large mound at the end of the woods at a horse farm. they have 5 horses and 5 goats. the mound is at least 2 feet tall. We are now working on this project. I will set the fire ant trap next to the mound.

the fire ants love to built up inside the trap because they feel safe. fire ants have the 3 things they need,warmth,food and moisture. the trap also prevents the winged ants from launching from the mound to mate.

sometimes i do not understand the logic of some people when it comes to treating fire ants. i have been studying fire ants for 9yrs.I have no idea what they were except ants that bite and why cannot some one get rid of them. I heard people use gasoline,kerosene, hot water, pesticides with water and powders. what they do not understand is the gasoline and kerosene is illegal but also pollutes the ground for many years and get into our ground water. they both have cancer-causing agents in them. people have wells and drink water from the wells,not good. hot water kills the grass and bushes or flowers near the water. powders can get into your lungs if you breath it or the wind blows your way. Don't you know 67 MILLIONS BIRDS DIE every year due to pesticides. Most fire ants pesticides are toxic to fish,birds, and bees. The birds think it is food on the ground. the fish can die from runoff. did you know that 22,000 trouts in Texas in 1998 ingested fire ants-dead winged one, on a river and died because their poison is toxic. We are polluting our ground with too much pesticide so we can have a manicure lawn. A school where i live sprayed at the school last year for fire ants. the following week, a principal told me that 4 yellow finch died and another person say that a teacher got a rash on her arm after they sprayed. So what is it doing to the children? sign of pesticide poisoning is like flu-like symptoms,breathing problems and maybe rash. did you know that children ages 6-11 have the highest level of pesticides in their body. We as parents do not think to get our child tested. we dont realize that the school field where our kids play has pesticides on them and the kids can get pesticides absorbed thro the skin. Parent need the study some web sites on pesticides and the effects they are having on our childrens. If this country is going GREEN why not go green with our soil. We invented our product to be a friend to nature. The bird,bee and fish would be protected from pesticides while you get rid of your fire ants. We did not realize at the time that fire ants fly up in the air to mate,guess what ,they cannot launch off the mound to the air because the mound is covered with the trap. Our invention protects the pesticide from the elements such as wind,rain and sunlight. We have given the ants a hotel with room service.You use less pesticide and it last longer. The ants love the trap because it is warm and heats the eggs up. Will i will quit for tonight Good night
