Ants control
Carpenter and pavement ants follow scent trails into kitchens and can hollow out damp structural wood.
- Type
- Crawling insects
- Most active
- April to September
Signs to look for
- Steady trails along baseboards, counters or window frames
- Small piles of fine sawdust (frass) near wood trim
- Winged ants indoors in early spring
Why it matters
- Carpenter ants weaken framing, decks and window sills
- Contaminated food and pantry goods
How we treat ants
We locate the colony rather than chasing trails, then apply non-repellent gel baits and targeted perimeter treatments that worker ants carry back to the nest.
Prevention tips
- Wipe up sugary spills and store food in sealed containers
- Trim branches touching the roof or siding
- Fix leaks that keep wood damp
