Lawn Treatment with Fire Ant Control: How it Helps You and Your Kyle-Area Lawn
Small fire ant populations are often manageable with no real detriment to your lawn. However, when this population starts to elevate, so does the potential for lawn destruction. The fire ant control lawn treatments we offer to Kyle-area residents help keep your lawn healthy by preventing the following:
Tunneling. One of the biggest ways fire ants can impact your lawn is by digging tunneling systems that interfere with the growth of your individual grass plants’ root systems. When tunnels extend below your entire lawn due to a large fire ant population, its roots only have a limited amount of room for growth, which can lead to overall weakness and fragility.- Plant Consumption. Fire ants’ diets consist mainly of grass seed and young grass plants, which can hinder the development and growth of your lawn. There will almost always be insects nibbling at your lawn, but out-of-hand fire ant populations can wreak havoc on your yard by targeting still-developing plants, which can lead to thinning, fading and patching.
- Painful Stings. One thing fire ants are famous for is their painful sting. A misstep could lead to an entire army of these pests being on your foot and crawling upwards in a matter of seconds, making your lawn more of a hazard than a fun place to relax or play with the kids.
