Is the State of Texas or Texas Cooperative Extension offering pesticides for fire ants at a reduced cost for homeowners?
None of the funding provided by the Texas legislature to implement the Texas Imported Fire Ant Research & Management Project can be used to buy or apply insecticides. The objectives of the educational program being conducted by Texas Cooperative Extension include encouraging homeowners and/or community groups to 1) decide what methods of control are right for their situation, and 2) use these methods for sustainable or longĀterm suppression by doing it yourself or with your neighbors, or with the help of a professional pest control service.
