From the kitchen to the garden, we’ll take care of ants so you can enjoy your home again.
Do You Have an Ant Infestation? Here’s What to Look For
Ants are often among the first pests to invade your home and are usually easy to spot. You might see trails of ants marching across your kitchen counters, floors, or along the walls. Watch for these common signs of an ant problem:
Remember, these pests are more than just an annoying sight. Certain species, such as carpenter ants, can damage the wood in your home, while sugar ants can contaminate your food. They are also known to spread bacteria and allergens, which can affect your family’s health. If left untreated, an ant infestation can grow quickly, causing more damage and spreading throughout your home.
The Importance of Immediate and Expert Ant Pest Control
When it comes to ant control, professional pest control is the most effective way to get lasting results. Ants can be tricky to deal with, as they often hide in places that are hard to reach, such as inside walls or under floorboards.
A professional team has the knowledge, tools, and experience to locate the source of the infestation, apply targeted treatments, and ensure that the ants are eliminated from your home entirely. This approach not only gets rid of the ants you see but also addresses the problem at its root.
DIY methods, while helpful for short-term fixes, often miss hidden nests and can leave some ants behind to regroup and reinfest your home. Professional pest control offers comprehensive, long-lasting solutions to stop ants in their tracks.
Everything You’ve Wanted to Ask About Ant and Pest Control
Ants are one of the most common—and frustrating—household pests. We’re here to give you peace of mind with clear answers, expert guidance, and safe, effective pest control solutions you can trust. Let’s tackle your ant concerns—one question at a time.
The most common household ants you’ll likely encounter are odorous house ants, pavement ants, carpenter ants, and Argentine ants. Each of these species is drawn indoors for different reasons, whether that be moisture, food crumbs, or access to nesting areas.
Identifying the specific type of ant is key to choosing the right treatment plan. During our inspection, we take the time to determine which species is causing trouble, so we can target them effectively and prevent their return.
Yes, certain ant species can cause structural damage, most notably carpenter ants. While they don’t actually eat wood like termites, they do excavate it to create nests, weakening beams, studs, and even flooring over time.
If left untreated, a carpenter ant colony can grow large enough to compromise parts of your home’s structure. That’s why it is so important to address ant infestations early.
Ants are incredibly organized and fast-multiplying, meaning a small issue can turn into a major infestation before you know it. A single colony can contain thousands of ants, and some species even have multiple queens, which can lead to rapid expansion.
Without treatment, ants will continue to forage for food and water, expanding their network of trails and nests. The longer they are allowed to settle in, the harder it becomes to eliminate them completely.
DIY methods like sprays, traps, or home remedies might provide short-term relief, but they often only treat the ants you can see, not the colony hiding behind the scenes. In some cases, DIY products can cause colonies to split and spread, making the problem worse over time.
Professional pest control goes deeper, targeting nests at the source and preventing re-infestation. We use environmentally-conscious techniques and proven treatments tailored to your specific ant issue. That way, you get safe, effective, and lasting results.
