Fire ants are more than just a nuisance; they can quickly take over your yard and create unsightly mounds that damage your lawn and disrupt outdoor activities. These aggressive ants also sting when disturbed, which can be a real problem for families who enjoy spending time outdoors. In Upstate South Carolina and Northeast Georgia, fire ants are especially active in spring and fall when conditions are ideal for colony growth.
If you’ve spotted multiple mounds or noticed ants swarming around yard areas, it’s time to take action. Compass Pest Management focuses on eliminating fire ant colonies and reducing the chances of future infestations through proven, long-lasting treatments.
Fire ants respond best to consistent treatment timing and proven products. Compass Pest Management uses a two-treatment plan each year to reduce colonies and keep your yard looking its best.
We use a two-treatment annual plan to provide long-term control and protection:
The product we use is carried back to the large underground nest under the mound and shared with the rest of the fire ant colony, eliminating the source of the problem rather than just killing visible workers.
Fire ant mounds are typically dome-shaped and found in sunny, open areas, such as lawns, along driveways, and playgrounds. They can range in size from small bumps to large, noticeable hills.
For lasting control, we recommend two treatments per year: once in the spring and once in the fall.
Fire ants can deliver painful stings and pose a particular concern for children, pets, and individuals with allergies.

I’ve been using Compass for over 5 years now for pest control and mosquito control and they do a great job. They are on time and always very professional. They are very accommodating if I ever needed anything else done like an ant problem in my kitchen.
