Why Ants and Fire Ants Thrive on Davie Properties
Davie's open lawns, pastures, and large lots are prime ground for fire ants, whose mounds spread fast in sunny turf and put kids, pets, and horses at risk of stings. Barns, sheds, fence posts, and woodpiles provide carpenter ants and other wood-nesting ants with the aged or damp wood they move into.
The town's many canals and dense landscaping keep moisture high year-round, which keeps colonies active and trailing toward the house.
Safe for Kids & Pets
Every treatment we apply is carefully selected to eliminate pests while keeping your children, dogs, cats, and other pets protected. Your family's safety is never an afterthought; it's the foundation of every service we offer.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get rid of fire ants in my Davie yard or pasture?
Lasting fire ant control means treating the mounds and the surrounding turf, not just knocking down the visible tops. We treat the active mounds and apply a product that prevents new ones from establishing across the lawn or pasture. Our fire ant control is built for South Florida yards and larger lots. On acreage, we focus on the areas where people and animals actually spend time.
Are fire ant bites dangerous to kids, pets, and horses?
Fire ant stings hurt and can cause painful welts, and a single disturbed mound can deliver many stings fast, which is a real concern around children, pets, and horses. Most stings are painful rather than dangerous, but people and animals can have stronger reactions. That is why we prioritize clearing mounds in play areas, paddocks, and walkways. Keeping the property treated reduces the risk of a surprise encounter.
Why do I have carpenter ants in my barn or shed?
Carpenter ants are drawn to damp or aging wood, which barns, sheds, fence posts, and woodpiles provide in abundance on Davie properties. They do not eat the wood, but they tunnel into it to nest, so a colony can quietly weaken structures over time. Our ant control service finds and treats the nest directly. Getting woodpiles off the ground and addressing moisture issues helps keep them from returning.
Why do ants keep coming back after I treat the mounds?
Knocking down a mound or spraying the surface kills foragers but often leaves the queen and colony alive, and fire ants can simply relocate nearby. We use products that reach the colony and prevent new mounds from forming, rather than just scattering them. Treating the surrounding turf and entry points is what gives lasting results. That is the difference between a quick knockdown and real control.
Is your ant treatment safe for kids and pets?
Yes, and it is the reason this company exists. We deliberately choose products that are effective on ants while being safe to use around children and pets, and your technician explains when it is fine to return to treated areas. Royal Pest & Termite is named after the owner's dog, so pet safety is built in. If a product is not safe enough for our own pets, it does not go in your home.
How fast can you come out?
We usually schedule Davie inspections within one to three business days and prioritize urgent situations. If you have active fire ant mounds where kids or animals are, tell us when you call, and we will do our best to move you up. Same-week service is common.
