Same day and Affordable Fire Ant Allergy Testing, Locations Nationwide

Concerned that you or someone you know may be allergic to Fire Ants? Request A Test offers convenient and affordable Fire Ant Allergy Testing in Houston, TX. This test is used to determine if a person may have an allergic reaction to fire ants. Allergy testing measures IgE antibodies to determine the severity of an allergy. These antibodies are proteins the immune system creates to repel allergens. The IgE antibodies trigger the release of histamine which causes the symptoms of an allergic reaction.

Fire ants are a species of insect which is native to South America but commonly found in the southern part of the United States and other areas. Fire ants are identifiable by their reddish color. The most common cause of fire ant stings is from accidentally disturbing their nests which are marked by mounds of dirt which can be as high as 18 inches. Their stings are painful and typically cause itching and swelling. It is typical for a fluid filled blister to develop at the site of the sting. People who are allergic to Fire Ants may experience more severe reactions including hives, swelling of the tongue or throat, difficulty breathing, dizziness, nausea, and diarrhea.
