Ants are a very common insect that are generally harmless. But left to populate into large numbers, and it can spell trouble for your property and be a nuisance for everyone in your residential or commercial property. The off-putting sight of a trail of ants is the least of your problems: ants can also cause stinging pain, carry harmful bacteria that infect your perishable items, and can even cause extensive property damage to the structure of your home.

Ants are a nuisance that will keep on coming back if not dealt with properly. With our pest management services, we can eliminate the infestation and provide steps to minimize and control the numbers to avoid alarming levels from crawling back and invading the comfort and safety of your property.
Ants are very common in most (if not all) homes. While a small number of ants on your property isn’t an emergency, an infestation can not only be a nuisance but also a property damage risk and a health risk, regardless of the ant species that form colonies on your property. Their size, coupled with their living and breeding habits, make the infestation even more difficult to handle.
Given their size, ants are capable of slipping through the tiniest holes and cracks around your home. And even then, some ants like the carpenter ant or pavement ant are capable of burrowing through concrete and wood within your walls. Commercial pesticides don’t tackle the infestation that can be hiding within your property, but our team of pest management specialists can.
Ants’ living habits means that they can make their way to any food item or material they need for the colony. Ants are most attracted to sugar, but they can also feed off crumbs and other small food items that fall around your property. If left untreated, ants could make their way to your food storage and contaminate your perishable items. If you’re in a home, this can mean having to throw out food items to avoid contamination. And for certain businesses like restaurants or cafés, this can be a code violation that can ruin your reputation especially if clients learn about your infestation.
Thankfully, our professional exterminators can identify where the colony is and effectively have it removed. We understand the behavior patterns of ants and use modern eco-friendly methods to eliminate them from your property. We can then provide a more extensive treatment plan to help keep infestations from returning to your property.

When your home has an ant infestation, you may find trails of ants around your home. You could opt for commercial pesticide products, but what you’re doing only kills a handful of ants and not the infestation that’s hiding out of sight. Products that deter ants from following a scent trail or kill the visible ants along the trail can work for a while, but given the exponential growth potential ant colonies can have, you’ve likely made a small dent on the actual population.
At Quality Affordable Pest Control, our ant exterminators treat your infestations at the root. With our pest control service, you’ll see how we can find the colony hiding inside and outside your property, eliminate it, and take steps to prevent ants from potentially finding their way into your home and rebuilding its colony.
Left unchecked, ant colonies can grow to large sizes and affect your home or business. For homeowners, certain types of ants bring risks that affect the comfort and safety of your household. Some of the dangers ants can bring include:

Ant infestations can take years to be spotted by an everyday property owner. But here are some of the signs you should watch out for:
If you see the signs, it’s time to call an ant control service provider like Quality Affordable Pest Control to manage the infestation.
A: Ants will infest your property if they find everything they need in it to build a colony: food, water, nesting materials, and a dark area to build their hive. While our eco-friendly ant extermination services can remove the infestation, a one-time treatment isn’t going to stop the risk of another infestation. If your home still has what ants need to thrive, it’s likely they’ll keep coming back. That’s why our ant removal inspections also come with strategies and recommendations to help eliminate your ant problem effectively.
A: When you find an ant trail, these usually consist of scout ants that leave chemical pheromones to guide other ants on the path. While you can kill them and take steps to remove the trail, other ants can actually take their place and rebuild the trail. This is because there are potentially more ants in an infestation than you know, and this makes it even more difficult to deal with for everyday homeowners and commercial property owners alike.
A: Taking steps like sealing up cracks and holes, placing your food in airtight containers, and keeping your home clean are just some easy ways to prevent a future infestation. After undergoing ant removal treatment, your home can avoid falling into another infestation if you’ve taken steps to prevent it from having everything ants need to survive.
