Ant Control

Ant Control

There are many of species of ants found in the Bay Area. Ants can be annoying chronic invaders of structures, causing contamination of food and creating an uncomfortable environment. Several species are common in homes, making proper identification the first step in a successful control program.

Argentine Ant

The Argentine Ant accounts for 95% of all the service requests we get for ant control. The Argentine Ant is the most successful species by far, filling every possible niche available, and frequently invading structures in search of food, water, and an appropriate climate. Famous for their “trails,” they use a pheromone (a sort of chemical message) to lead workers to food and water sources. Their large colonies have multiple queens, allowing for great biological potential and adaptability. Individual colonies co-operate rather than competing, adding to their success.

Ant Control, and proper control of all insects and pests, begins with an inspection of your property and an interview with the customer to determine the source of the ant infestation. Then we can offer the best overall Integrated Pest Management options. Chemistry has and continues to evolve in our industry, offering a number of options for ant control depending on our customer’s needs and goals. Frequently our customers desire an ongoing maintenance service to prevent future problems, and control a variety of other household pests. Ask your service technician for information about a program to meet your needs.
