# Fire Ant Mounds in the Lawn in Pickens County, SC

Fire ant mounds pop up after fall rains in Pickens County yards. Treat mounds carefully, keep kids and pets clear, and plan a yard-wide approach if they keep coming back.

- Do not kick or rake open a mound; disturbed fire ants swarm and sting fast.
- Mark mounds near play areas, walkways, and dog runs so you can treat those first.
- Follow the product label exactly and keep children and pets off treated areas for the time it lists.
- If mounds keep spreading across the yard, ask a local lawn pro about a broadcast treatment plan.
