(Newswire.net — August 13, 2013) Houston, TX — Texas Bugs-R-Us and Calvin Thigpen are pleased to announce that the pest control firm is available to assist homeowners in programs to avoid losing the battle against the invasion of Tawny Crazy Ants which is making its way into the Houston area. This species of ants first showed up in Houston in 2002. At least some evidence of infestation has been found in 14 Texas counties, as of 2009.

A company spokesperson explains, “We are still studying the species, but so far, a major characteristic is that the numbers of these creatures during an infestation. Because there are so many that appear within just a short while, home techniques for control are generally ineffective. Even when the over-the-counter products reduce the numbers, the reduction doesn’t last long.”

“The professionals” he continues, “have the right expertise and the products to assist the homeowners in the community to manage the Crazy Ants population correctly. Because these creatures multiply so rapidly, it is important to take action quickly. The infestation of ants can have detrimental effects on the interior of walls, as well as on electrical equipment.”

Homeowners have a part to play, even when the professionals are called in. Often, the advice of the pro will be beneficial in suggesting actions that the home owner can take to avoid proliferation of the creatures. The pest control firm begins a program with a thorough assessment of the home and grounds, with particular emphasis on the areas of likely infestation. An action plan will include removing debris, trash and similar materials where there is evidence of the ants. This action will clear the way for unobstructed spray to combat the ants. Dead ants should be removed in a way that doesn’t disturb the insecticide.
