Fire Ant Treatment – Common Questions
Q. How does your product
work?
A. We broadcast a fine granular product that dissolves in
moisture. This product bonds with the organic thatch layer of
your lawn. Ants are eliminated when they work the soil in the
treated areas.
Q. Should I water my lawn after the treatment?
A. Yes. We ask that you water your lawn within 48 hours after
treatment to help the product dissolve from its granular form.
Water your lawn normally after that.
Q. What about children and pets using the lawn?
A. The product works in the thatch layer of the lawn. After
watering the lawn and it dries, TopChoice binds tightly to the
organic matter helping to resist run off and also making it
great to use where children and pets play.
Q. Do I need to be home on the date of service?
A. No. Just make sure pets are secured indoors and gates are
unlocked.
Q. How long does it take for the treatment to take effect?
A. In most cases, your Fire ant problem will be gone in less
than 4-6 weeks.
Q. If I continue to see Fire Ants in my lawn, what do I need to
do?
A. Give the program 4-6 weeks to work. After that, if you find a
mound, disturb it to see if it has active ants. Most mounds will
not have any activity. If the mound is active, contact our
service department. We will come back and eliminate the problem
at no charge—guaranteed.
Q. Can the treatment damage my lawn?
A. No. The treatment is not harmful to lawns in any way. Top
Choice has been tested on all types of grasses and landscapes.
Q. Does eliminating Fire Ants on the outside prevent problems
inside my home?
A. Yes. Reducing the pest pressure from the outside is the best
way to help reduce problems on the inside of your home.
