one of the best ways to kill fire ants in your yard is by using fire ant baits fire ant baits will be picked up and carried back to the colony by the foraging ants which will result in fire ant colony elimination over the next several weeks when dealing with a yard that is infested with fire ants we recommend you use a product about is specifically labeled for fire ant control here's a quick tip to test if fire ants are actively foraging simply drop a potato chip near the mound and check it after an hour - to see if they answer attracted to the chip if they are it's time to bait while individual mound applications can be done fire ant baits should be broadcasted over the infested areas for the most effective treatment you can broadcast the fire ant bait using a hand spreader in your yard results will be seen over the next few weeks
