Ant Control

Ant Control

Species-specific ant elimination targeting the colony at its source using advanced gel baits, dusts, and barrier treatments for long-term control.

Key Benefits

  • Species identification and nest location
  • Slow-acting gel bait application for colony elimination
  • Dust treatment for wall cavities and voids
  • External barrier spray around entry points
  • Targeted treatment for different ant species (black ants, coastal brown ants, carpenter ants)

Our Process

  1. Detailed inspection of kitchens, pantries, bathrooms, and water sources
  2. Ant species identification to determine optimal treatment approach
  3. Strategic gel bait placement near trails and high-activity zones
  4. Dust application to wall voids, electrical outlets, and roof spaces where nests exist
  5. External perimeter spray to block re-entry routes
  6. Treatment of outdoor nests in gardens, paving, and lawns
  7. Sanitation and storage recommendations to prevent re-infestation
  8. Follow-up visit if required for persistent colonies

Safety Information

All ant baits and treatments are non-toxic to humans and pets when used correctly. Gel baits are applied only where ants travel, not on open food surfaces or high-contact areas.

Pro Tips

  • Wipe down countertops with vinegar or soapy water to remove ant scent trails.
  • Seal all cracks around baseboards, windows, and doors.
  • Store food in airtight containers and clean up spills immediately.
  • Fix leaking taps and remove standing water sources.
  • Trim tree branches touching the house as ants use them as highways.
  • Keep pet food bowls clean and avoid leaving food out overnight.

Why Choose Us

  • Custom treatment strategy for different ant species and behaviors
  • Safe for use in sensitive areas like kitchens, childcare centers, and schools
  • Results often visible within 24–48 hours
  • Long-lasting colony elimination, not just surface control
  • Environmentally responsible products
  • Guaranteed follow-up if ants return within warranty period

Did You Know?

Some ant species have multiple queens and can split into separate colonies when threatened, which is why professional treatment targeting the entire colony is essential.
