Ant control for Dallas homes and yards
Northridge Pest Control treats fire ants, odorous house ants, carpenter ants and crazy ants for homeowners across Dallas, Plano, Frisco and Richardson.
Why do ants keep coming back in Dallas?
Spraying the ants you can see kills the foragers and leaves the colony alone. Odorous house ants and crazy ants split into new colonies when they are stressed, so a can of store spray often turns one problem into three. Fire ant mounds in the yard push up again a few feet away for the same reason.
We identify the species first, then treat the colony. Inside, that means slow-acting baits the workers carry back to the queen. Outside, it means a broadcast fire ant bait across the lawn and a targeted band around the foundation where trails come in. Most homes see a clear drop within a week and a quiet kitchen within two.
When to call us
- Ant trails along the kitchen counter, sink or dishwasher
- Fire ant mounds in the lawn, beds or along the sidewalk
- Large black ants and sawdust near windows or the roofline
- Ants coming back every spring after heavy rain

What should I do after an ant treatment?
Leave the baits alone and do not spray store products over them for at least two weeks, even if you see more ants at first. That rise means they are feeding. Wipe up crumbs and sugary spills, fix dripping taps and keep mulch pulled back a few inches from the slab.
