Identifying Entry Points and Infestation Sources

The first step in our ant control process is a thorough inspection of your home to determine the source of the infestation.

Baiting and Barrier Solutions for Maximum Effectiveness

Based on the findings of our inspection, we develop a customized treatment strategy tailored to your specific infestation. This may involve strategic baiting, targeted spraying, or a combination of both. Baits work by allowing ants to carry insecticide back to the colony, while perimeter sprays help create a protective barrier around your home.

Ant FAQs

What are the most common types of ants found in homes?

Common household ants include carpenter ants, pavement ants, odorous house ants, and sugar ants. Identifying the species is essential for effective treatment.

Why do I keep seeing ants in my kitchen?

Ants enter homes in search of food, water, and shelter. Kitchens provide an ideal environment with food crumbs, spills, and moisture, attracting them inside.

How do you treat an ant infestation?

We use a combination of baiting, spraying, and perimeter treatments, depending on the severity of the infestation and the species of ants present.

Will ant baiting work immediately?

Ant baits take time to work, as foraging ants carry the bait back to the colony, eliminating the problem at the source. Results typically show within a few days to a couple of weeks.

How can I prevent ants from coming back?

Keeping your home clean, sealing food in airtight containers, fixing leaks, and sealing cracks around windows and doors can help prevent future ant infestations.

Do ants cause structural damage?

While most ants are nuisance pests, carpenter ants can cause significant structural damage by burrowing into wood to create nests. Early detection and treatment are crucial.

Is professional ant control better than DIY methods?

DIY treatments may provide temporary relief but often fail to address the root of the problem. Professional services target colonies directly, ensuring long-term elimination.

How long does an ant treatment last?

Treatment effectiveness depends on the severity of the infestation and environmental factors. Our treatments typically provide long-lasting results, with follow-up visits if needed.

Are your ant control treatments safe for pets and children?

Yes, we use family- and pet-friendly products that effectively eliminate ants while keeping your home safe.

When should I call a professional for ant control?

If you notice persistent ant activity, large numbers of ants, or signs of carpenter ant damage, it’s best to call a professional for a thorough inspection and treatment plan.
