The Signs You Have an Ant Infestation

Early detection is helpful for everything, from physical health to car problems. Ant infestations are no different. Here are some of the red flags that should tip you off: 

• Visible ant trails: Ants leave scent trails for other ants to follow, creating visible lines or trails as they search for food sources. If you consistently see ants moving in a particular path, especially in areas where food is present, it likely indicates a significant presence.
• Presence of ant nests: Ant nests can vary in size and location depending on the ant species, with common sites including soil mounds, wall voids, and under debris. 
• Piles of frass: Ants remove debris and waste from their nests, depositing it near entry points or along foraging trails. This frass typically consists of tiny wood particles, soil, or insect body parts and serves as a visible indication of ant activity. 
• Damaged wood or structures: Certain ant species, such as carpenter ants, tunnel through wood to build their nests, causing structural damage. If you notice hollowed-out or weakened wood, particularly in damp areas, it suggests a carpenter ant infestation. 
• Rustling sounds: Ants are known to create rustling or crackling sounds when they move within walls, ceilings, or other confined spaces. These sounds may occur as ants communicate, excavate nesting sites, or search for food sources. 

Our Ant Control Process

As a part of our commitment to providing high-quality service to each customer, we have developed a meticulous three-step ant control process. 

It all begins with a thorough inspection to understand the specifics of your ant problem so that we can recommend the most effective treatment solution. During our visit, we’ll engage you in detailed conversations to learn about your environment, the timelines of ant sightings, and specific areas of concern. We carefully examine both the interior and exterior of your property, including garages and porches to identify ant entry points and nesting sites.

At the heart of our service is a belief in educating our customers. We take pride in being customer-focused and support this ethos by offering customized suggestions and prevention tips during our inspection. 

Following the inspection and educational phase, we craft a customized treatment plan designed to meet your unique ant control requirements. You can expect the following: 

• Our team will apply gel baits in strategic locations.
• Next, we use non-repellent dust in cracks, crevices, and wall voids.
• If necessary, we seal up entry points and treat around them. 
• We always apply treatments to the exterior of the home or garage, including the entire foundation, for continuous protection. This product has no-odor and is low-toxicity and will eliminate the nest. 
• We follow the trail of ants back to their nesting site (if able) and treat the nesting site with effective products.
• From there, we will identify any satellite nests to get rid of any problems in the future.
• We return after one month has passed to reapply the treatment.

We follow a bimonthly treatment schedule to help protect your property from future infestations.
