Fire Ants

Fire Ants A typical fire ant colony produces large mounds in open areas, and feed on plants, insects and seeds. Fire ants often attack small animals such as lizards or frogs and can kill them. Unlike many other ants, which bite and then spray acid on the wound, fire ants bite only to get a grip and then sting (from the abdomen) and inject a toxic alkaloid venom. For humans, this is a painful sting, a sensation similar to what one feels when burned by fire (hence the name), and the after-effects of the sting can be deadly to sensitive people. Fire ants are more aggressive than most native species, and have pushed many species away from their local habitat. Invasive Species – Fire Ants Fire ants are not only annoying pests to have in your yard, they can also invade your home or business. In Texas, we experience some pretty hot temperatures which most often time leads to droughts, or the extreme opposite effect of flooding rains. Both of these conditions will bring fire ants into your home or business in search of food, water, and nesting sites.  Fire ants are persistent! The key to successful long-term fire ant control is to be as persistent as the ants. Even if you kill every fire ant in your yard, new queens will soon be landing after their mating flights and starting new colonies. But if you treat for these fire ants preventively, you can keep most of these new colonies from surviving to become big mounds. There are many types of ants, but fire ants can be the worst. If you need help with a fire ant treatment or a pest control plan contact Camo Pest Control. We can help you with all of your pest control needs, including these horrible and invasive fire ants. Camo Pest Control can help you eradicate these pests. Call (830) 560-6960 to schedule a visit.

Cockroaches

Roaches As many people already know, cockroaches carry diseases, germs, and bacteria. An infestation can also trigger allergies and asthma in certain individuals. Since roaches can run up to 3 miles per hour, they can spread those germs pretty quick. They are omnivorous and opportunistic feeders. That means they can eat basically anything, but are especially fond of fermenting foods. Roaches normally live in moist environments, but can survive anywhere with water. These insects and their egg sacks can easily be hidden out of sight. Adult roaches can live a little over a year and during that time the female can produce approximately 150 babies. Did you know some species can also fly? Call Camo Pest Control @ (830) 560-6960 so can protect your home before they fly into your home.

Scorpions

Termite Swarmers

Termite Swarmers During early spring into late summer, and most often after a rain event, termites send out their swarmers, also known as alates. They don’t sting or even eat wood. Their main goal is to reproduce and sustain the colony. This normally occurs once per year, typically after the colony has been established for at least 3 years. If you notice this type of event inside your home or business, you can be sure you have some level of infestation. Please call Camo Pest Control at (830) 560-6960 and we can help you take back your home or business.
