Although there are several thousand species of ants,
there are really only a hand-full that we get calls
on. The most common ant is the Argentine ant. This
ant makes up about 90% of our ant calls, so the following
description is how we address the Argentine ant. First
any good ant service starts with exterior. Our technicians
are going to thoroughly treat the exterior of your
home. This includes spraying a perimeter around your
home, the planters, walkways, fence lines, driveways,
pools, jacuzzis, and anywhere else that might be a
concern to you. With this thorough exterior treatment
there is almost never a need to do the interior.
We usually find that within one to three days the
ants are completely gone from around the home as well
as inside the home. Sometimes there is a need to do
an interior treatment, and we do that service with
the same thoroughness as our exterior treatment. If
an interior treatment is needed, please go to our
home page and go to preparation instructions for a
detailed explanation of how to prepare for it. Please
note: there are ants out there like the Pharaoh Ant
that are usually only a problem on the inside of the
structure and if you have this ant we would bait only
as spraying would only make the problem worse. Rest
assured our experienced technicians will make sure
they're treating for the right pest before we start.
