The red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invicta, continues to spread across North Carolina due in part to favorable climate conditions that aid its natural spread. Fire ants are native to southern Brazil and also inhabit eleven southern states, as well as isolated areas in New Mexico and California. In North Carolina, imported fire ants can be found in at least 75 of our 100 counties, including isolated areas in western North Carolina. At the same time, increased residential and commercial development contribute to their spread in infested sod, nursery stock, soil, wheat straw and other materials.
