Anybody that talked to pest control
personnel for ants has heard this quote a few times “I keep seeing small little
or big, black ants in my house, especially in the kitchen and bathroom. I spray
the ones I see, but they keep coming back. What kind of ants are these, where
do they come from, and how do I get rid of them?”
Ants can find their way inside through
wiring and plumbing systems, in cracks around windows and doors and in many
other ways. Once they’re inside, ants are drawn to crumbs and can build nests
or colonies indoors in places where they find food. While ants typically do not
carry illnesses or diseases, some species do bite, and they can make even a
well cared for home seem unclean and less than inviting.
Rains
can flood out treated residential and commercial properties giving ants the
moisture they thrive in, and diluting previous treatments.All bugs reproduce
faster with moisture. Monthly or Bi-monthly Pest control for ants
services keep that protective barrier around homes and Commercial
business building.its just like anything the less its maintained the more
chances it vonarable to a problem.
Why
Hire a Professional?
There
are a number of DIY ant control products available for sale in big box stores,
hardware stores and home improvement centers, but often, these products are not
fully effective at eliminating ants. This is especially true when large
infestations are present in a home or when the ants are inside of a wall or
another area of a home where they are difficult to access. As a result,
homeowners are often well served to contact a professional ant control
exterminator, who will not only eliminate the
ants but also let the consumers know how to keep ants from returning to the
home.
Things
to Do Before the ant Exterminator Arrives
Before
performing ant pest control services, a licensed exterminator will conduct a complete home
inspection to locate the ants, discover their entry point and determine what
species is present.
Homeowners
can help get ready for an ant pest control inspection by:
1.
Cleaning the kitchen area. Sweep the
floors, wipe down the counter tops and wipe off the baseboards or trim. This
will eliminate crumbs that attract ants.
2.
Run the vacuum in every room of the home.
This will further remove food sources.
3.
Double check that all food is stored in airtight containers, even in the
refrigerator.
4.
Take the trash out regularly, particularly when food is thrown away in the
garbage.
5.
Empty the dishwasher promptly after use and keep the door closed at all types. Make sure the dishwasher and sink are both empty on the day
of the inspection.
6.
Do not leave pet food on the floor in the kitchen all day. After a pet is finished eating, throw extra food away or
store it in an airtight container until the next feeding.
To prevent further Ant infestations:
- Trim all trees and bushes so
branches do not touch the house.
- Correct moisture problems such
as leaky roofs and plumbing.
- Paint and/or seal exposed wood
construction before it becomes wet.
- Replace rotted, water-damaged,
and previously Ant-infested wooden parts of the structure.
- Eliminate wood/soil contacts.
- Remove dead stumps on the
property and store firewood off the ground and away from the structure.
To
get rid of Ant problem, inspect to find Ant nests, follow
their trails is an important step in control. Ants lay down a
chemical pheromone trail along their established routes to and from a food
source so other Ants can easily find the food.
