Ant Control Treatment
Insecticidal Gel Baits
The most effective method for many species. Foraging ants take the bait back to the nest, sharing it with the colony and the queen, which completely destroys the infestation at its source.
Residual Insecticide Sprays
Targeted application of professional-grade sprays around entry points, skirting boards, and window frames to create a highly effective barrier that stops ants entering your home.
Dust Formulations
Insecticidal dusts are injected into wall cavities, cracks, and crevices where liquids or gels cannot be safely used, ensuring no hiding spot is missed.
Advice on Dealing with Ant Control
Clean up food spills instantly
Ants leave pheromone trails for others to follow. Instantly wiping up sugary spills and keeping floors clean is the best way to prevent scout ants from returning.
Store food in airtight containers
Keep open packets of food, especially sugar, honey, and cereal, in sealed plastic or glass containers. Ants can easily navigate folded cardboard.
Seal entry points
Inspect the exterior of your property. Use silicone caulk to seal small cracks around doors, windows, and pipework where ants might be entering.
What They Can Do to Your Property
Food Contamination
Ants travel through unsanitary areas before walking across your countertops and food. Any unsealed food they access must be thrown away to prevent illness.
Structural Nuisance
While not as destructive as termites, some species will excavate soil from beneath patios or pathways, causing paving stones to become uneven and unstable.
Bites and Stings
While common black ants are harmless, flying ants and specific species can bite if threatened, which can be distressing for children and pets.
