Overview What is Forterra's ant control service?

Forterra Ant Control around Aubrey deals with fire ants in open ground and carpenter ants in outbuilding timber. Mounds move after rain and a lawn clear in spring can carry a dozen by midsummer, so the work is managing pressure rather than clearing land.

On the ground in Aubrey

Pasture ground, and what builds in it.

Out of the Aubrey office the ant problem starts in open ground rather than in landscaping. Fire ants thrive in pasture and in the disturbed soil around new construction, and a property with acreage does not have a tidy perimeter to defend. Mounds move after rain, and a lawn that was clear in spring can carry a dozen by midsummer without anything having gone wrong.

Carpenter ants are the other half of it here, because this territory still has real tree lines and outbuildings with damp timber in them. Those nest in wood that has already taken water, so finding the nest matters more than treating the ants you can see. We identify the species first, treat the actual colony, and on properties with outbuildings we say plainly which structures are worth including in the program and which are not.

Why baiting beats spraying

We treat the colony, not the trail.

Out here the ants start in open ground rather than landscaping. Disturbed soil around new construction suits fire ants, and there is no neighbouring yard between that and the house.

Stage 01
01

Identify species

Fire ant, carpenter ant and sugar ant fail to different treatments.

Fire ant, carpenter ant and odorous house ant each fail differently. Five minutes of identification decides the whole treatment plan.

Stage 02
02

Bait colonies

Workers carry the bait home and feed it to the queen for us.

When the nest can be found, we treat the colony directly. When it cannot, baits and non-repellent sprays go where the trails are, and the workers carry the product home to the queen and brood, slower, but it is how a colony actually dies.

Stage 03
03

Seal routes

The routes get sealed and the quarterly barrier keeps pressure outside.

Ants enter through gaps a credit card can't fit. The Zero Gap perimeter treatment closes the routes, and quarterly visits keep the pressure outside.

  1. 01

    Foundation band

    The perimeter line where trails cross into the house. The Zero Gap band here is what separates yard ants from kitchen ants.

  2. 02

    Fence-line beds

    Fire ant mounds pop up in the open lawn, not along cover. Single mounds get individual treatment; a yard that keeps producing them gets broadcast granular bait across the whole lawn.

  3. 03

    Shaded beds

    Moist mulch under trees hosts odorous house ant colonies, the 'sugar ants' that split when sprayed.

  4. 04

    Under the deck

    Protected soil that never gets raked, a favorite nesting void for multiple colonies at once.

  5. 05

    Garage corner

    Sweet spills and pet food make the garage the ants' first indoor stop. targeted spray work live here.

  6. 06

    Garden beds

    Trees are nests too. Carpenter ants love crape myrtles, and ants trailing one near the house almost always means a colony in it. Beds and trunks get checked together.

Frequently asked

Questions in Aubrey, answered plainly.

If you don't see yours, call (817) 670-2835 or text us, a human will answer.

Because on acreage the outside population is effectively unlimited. Treating what you can see changes this week; what changes the season is treating the colonies and closing the route into the building, since new mounds will keep arriving regardless.

Painful, and on a property where children or animals are out in pasture worth managing rather than ignoring. Most people get irritation rather than danger from them, but a known sting allergy changes that calculation entirely.

Carpenter ants leave coarse sawdust and tunnelled wood; termites leave mud tubes and eaten wood. Around Aubrey carpenter ants turn up in fence posts, barn framing and stacked lumber as often as in the house, so where it is found matters.

Treatment is placed on trails and mounds rather than broadcast, which keeps it away from where children, dogs and livestock move. We are specific about which areas to keep clear and for how long, including around outbuildings.

Inside the quarterly plan at $49 a month, initial service from $149. Acreage with a significant fire ant load usually needs dedicated yard treatment beyond the plan, and outbuildings are quoted alongside rather than assumed.
