Fire Ant Nest Treatment at Western Brisbane Vacant Land

During a recent large-scale fire ant eradication project on the western side of Brisbane, our team at Fire Ant Solutions identified hundreds of active nests across vacant land earmarked for development. The nest pictured here, marked with a yellow flag for tracking, was one of many targeted in a systematic treatment operation to ensure complete removal of the red imported fire ant (Solenopsis invicta) colonies.

Systematic Fire Ant Control in Brisbane

Fire ants are a Category 1 restricted pest in Queensland, and their rapid spread poses a serious threat to public safety, infrastructure, and the environment. Each identified nest was injected with an approved eradication solution, penetrating deep into the mound to reach the queen and disrupt the colony’s lifecycle. This targeted method ensures maximum effectiveness while complying with Queensland’s strict biosecurity regulations.

Why Fire Ant Eradication Was Critical

With the site set to be developed into community facilities, removing fire ants before construction begins was essential. Fire ants can inflict painful stings, cause severe allergic reactions, and quickly spread to surrounding areas if left untreated. Early intervention prevented further infestation and protected future residents and visitors from this highly invasive pest.
