SIGNS OF ANT INFESTATIONS

  • Seeing ants inside your home or building: If you start seeing ants inside your home, it could be a sign that you have an infestation. Different species of ants have different habitats, so if you see ants inside, it could indicate that they have established a nest nearby.
  • Seeing a steady stream of ants: If you notice a steady stream of ants coming from a specific area, it could be a sign that there is a nest nearby. Ants will often follow a pheromone trail back and forth from their nest to a food source, so if you see a large number of ants moving in a line, it could be a sign that there is a nest nearby.
  • Finding ant nests: Ant nests can often be found in or around the foundation of a building, in walls, or in trees or shrubs near the building. If you notice a large number of ants congregating in a specific area, it could be a sign that there is a nest nearby.
  • Seeing ants carrying food: If you see ants carrying food back to their nest, it could be a sign that they have established a nest in or near your home. Ants will often forage for food and bring it back to their nest to feed their colony.
  • Seeing swarms of ants: If you see a large number of ants swarming in a specific area, it could be a sign of a new colony trying to establish itself. Ant colonies will often send out swarms of ants to search for a new nesting site, and if they find a suitable location, they will establish a new nest.

If you are experiencing any of these signs, it is a good idea to contact our exterminators to assess the situation and determine the best course of action. We will identify the type of ants present and determine the best method for eliminating the infestation.
