ANT CONTROL

Our Ant Control & Removal Services

Ants aren’t just a nuisance. In the home, they can infest food and cause hundreds of dollars worth of losses. Some species are also very aggressive and territorial, and won’t hesitate to bite or sting you. This is why professional ant control and removal services are among the most popular pest services there are.

Ant Control

Why It's Hard to Get Rid of Ants on Your Own

Many people who have contended with ant infestations have tried standard pest-killing sprays or baits, only to find that the ants don’t stay gone for long. In the case of sprays, this is because the queen ant remains unaffected. She hides in the ant nest at all times and lays eggs there almost continuously. Any ants killed by sprays are thereby replaced, often within days.

Standard baits for ant control and removal fail for a variety of reasons. They may be made to attract the wrong kinds of ants, be too weak to do their job effectively, or never get transferred all the way to the queen. In any of these cases, the bait won’t get rid of the ants.

Cleaning is often recommended as a part of standard pest control, but it is often of little use against ants. This is because ant colonies send out “scouts,” who must examine every area to find out whether or not food is there. These scouts will come into your house no matter how clean it is because they don’t know until they check. The worst part is, they’ll keep on checking continually, so you’ll always see a few. If there’s a spot where you used to drop a lot of food, they’ll check there even more – and if you happen to leave something there again, a team of foragers will soon arrive to get it.

How Ant Control and Removal Services Take Care of the Problem

When you hire our ant control and removal services, the first step is to inspect your property. We’ll look for places that attract ants, pathways they can use to enter, active ant trails, and other important features. We will also determine exactly which type of ants you have so that the proper baits can be chosen. This bait will be strong enough to do its job, and will be active long enough to make it all the way to the queen.

Once the queen is dead, the entire ant colony will soon perish. Any other ant colonies that try to make your house their home will suffer the same fate. Since ants typically nest outdoors and walk to get into your residence, we’ll also treat the outside with a combination of non-repellant insecticide and spray. This will greatly deter them from coming in during the time between treatment and colony death.

Our Unique Approach To Ant Control & Removal Services

Ants can enter your home through the smallest gaps and openings while they are looking for food and water sources. Once they find a source, they will leave a pheromone trail for other ants to follow. Our team knows this and can stop ants dead in their tracks. Learn more about our unique approach to ant control below:

1. ANT INSPECTION

Our EcoPro team will perform a thorough inspection in and around your home. We will look for ant trails, favorable conditions, food and water sources as well as possible entry points on the interior and exterior of your home or building. We will then determine where the ants are coming from and what is attracting them. Your EcoPro Technician with then identify the species of ant to ensure that the most effective treatment method is used to eliminate the specific problem.

2. INTERIOR ANT TREATMENT

During your interior ant treatment, we will place professional ant baits and carefully apply a safe eco-friendly non repellant insecticide in specific areas focusing on ant trails and target entry points. Ants feed on this bait and take pieces all the way back to the queen, resulting in eliminating the entire colony. This approach ensures the whole ant nest is completely taken care of and that the ants don’t come back.

3. EXTERIOR ANT TREATMENT

Your EcoPro Technician will carefully apply a safe non-repellent insecticide all around the perimeter and entry-points of your home as well as place ant bait in specifically targeted areas. Our technicians will also ensure to take a good look around your home while treating to see if they spot any active trails or ant nests and make sure they target them directly so that the treatment is as thorough as possible for best results.

How Long Does It Take for Ants to be Eradicated?

You will typically see a great reduction in ant numbers right away, but since the full effect is only visible after the queen and all existing worker ants are dead, it can take 2-3 weeks before the ants are completely eradicated.

During this time, it is important to avoid using any store-bought ant killers after ant control and removal services in Franklin, TN and beyond. This is because most common storebought ones have a repellant effect as well as being poisonous. The repellant aspect can keep newly arriving ants away from our professional-grade baits, thereby keeping them away from the colony. In order for our baits to work, the ants must take them. Nothing should be done that will deter this bait-taking activity.

Will They Stay Gone with Ant Control and Removal Services?

Our baits and non-repellent insecticides are effective for up to three months. After that, you should schedule us to come and apply more for ongoing protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ants invade homes looking for food and water. So if you leave dirty dishes in the sink, food residue on your counters, or crumbs on the floor, you’re essentially inviting meal-seeking ants into your home.

Ant infestations are a pretty big deal. One of the biggest problems related to ants is food contamination. Ants carry bacteria on their bodies, which spreads when they crawl in your sink and across your countertops.
