what do fire ants look like?

While most fire ants are red, some are black, which can make properly identifying this pest a little more difficult. Red or black, all fire ants have defining characteristics, including bent antennae, visible stingers, and two bumps between their thorax and abdomen. If you spot ants on your property and aren’t sure whether or not they are fire ants, we recommend keeping your distance and scheduling a professional inspection. Our San Antonio ant control specialists are skilled in identifying and treating these pests.

signs of a fire ant infestation

Recognizing a fire ant infestation is easiest when you know how to identify their mounds. Much like other ant colonies, fire ants build nests underground. However, their nests tend to be larger and more complex, with multiple entry and exit points. That means that while most other ant nests typically have one mound through which the ants enter and exit, fire ants have multiple mounds. In fact, in a single acre, there could be as many as 40 mounds constructed by fire ants.

Additional Signs of Fire Ant Mounds Include:


  • They typically appear a few days after a heavy rain
  • The ants swarm in large numbers when the nest is disturbed
  • There is no opening in the center of the mound

are fire ants dangerous?

Fire ants are small, but that doesn’t make them any less dangerous. If someone happens to get too close to their nest, these insects take that as a threat. Once they feel threatened, fire ants latch onto their victims and release a venom into them through a stinger. For most people, the venom released by fire ants creates an intense burning sensation and can result in red bumps and white pustules. These bumps and pustules can result in scarring of the skin.

Seek Medical Attention Right Away if You Experience Any of the Following Symptoms After Being Stung by Fire Ants:


  • Nausea
  • Excessive itching
  • Difficulty breathing
  • Difficulty swallowing
  • Vomiting
  • Sweating
  • Dizziness

Additionally, with each colony containing up to half a million members, fire ants attack in large numbers. To protect yourself from receiving multiple stings, it is always a good idea to watch where you are walking and avoid fire ant mounds when you come across them.
