'Rasberry Crazy Ants'

Tom Rasberry, an Associate Certified Entomologist, from Pearland, Texas who first identified the Rasberry Crazy Ants in 2002. Rasberry has been leading the fight against the Crazy Rasberry Ants, and estimates that he has spent over 2000 hours researching them. Rasberry was hired by NASA to deal with their Rasberry crazy ant infestation at the Johnson Space Center in March 2008.

In addition to his fight against the Rasberry Crazy Ants, Rasberry has over 32 years of experience in pest control and can assist you with any other pest control problems including: ants, rodents, spiders, mosquitoes, rats, mice, bees, insects, termites, fleas, flies, ticks, roaches and do it yourself pest control and exterminating.


Rasberry Crazy Ants are spreading in Texas at an alarming rate.

In my opinion these ants pose a clear and present danger to our way of life, and the time for real action was years ago. If we don't act now the consequences could be irreversible.
