Ant Control & Extermination Services
Our pest control experts have the experience to correctly identify, treat and remove ants from your property.
Why Professional Ant Control is Essential?
Ant infestations are one of the most common issues for both homes and businesses, and once ants get inside, they spread quickly. These insects enter through small gaps around windows, doors, or foundations while searching for food and moisture. Without professional pest control services, ant colonies can grow fast and become difficult to eliminate. Our team uses science-backed methods aligned with EPA guidelines, CDC recommendations, and NPMA best practices to ensure safe, effective results.
Correct identification is essential for choosing the right treatment. Some of the most common species we see include carpenter ants, Argentine ants, pavement ants, pharaoh ants, and fire ants. Integrated pest management ensures each species is treated with the correct strategy for long-term control.
- Carpenter ants – attracted to damp or damaged wood
- Argentine ants – aggressive, fast-spreading, and common in residential neighborhoods
- Pavement ants – nest in cracks and follow predictable trails into buildings
- Pharaoh ants – known for spreading in hospitals, restaurants, and multifamily housing
- Fire ants – stinging ants that create visible mounds outdoors
How Ant Colonies Operate
Ants live in organized colonies made up of workers, queens, and developing young. Because ants reproduce quickly and spread through walls, attics, soil, and landscaping, DIY methods rarely provide lasting relief. Understanding colony behavior is a key part of our integrated pest management process and recommended by organizations such as the NPMA.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Ant Control FAQs
Ants are drawn to moisture and accessible food sources such as sugar, grease, meats, peanut butter, and even damp or rotting wood. Cracks around doors and windows often provide easy entry points.
Signs include seeing trails of ants, finding nests in soil, pavement, or wood, and discovering food contamination. Winged ants inside your home may also indicate a mature colony nearby.
No. Effective treatment depends on the species. Carpenter ants, fire ants, pavement ants, and pharaoh ants each require specific control strategies, which is why professional identification is critical.
Yes. Carpenter ants burrow into damp wood, potentially damaging structures, while fire ants can build large outdoor mounds and pose a stinging hazard. Even smaller species like pharaoh ants can spread harmful bacteria in sensitive environments.
Prevention involves sealing cracks, keeping food stored properly, fixing moisture issues, and scheduling regular pest control services. Professional treatments provide long-term protection against recurring infestations.
