Ant Control
Ants are highly organised social insects. Whilst they are not generally considered to carry diseases, they travel through unsanitary areas before reaching your property and can contaminate uncovered food and surfaces.
It is the foraging worker ants that invade buildings in search of food to take back to their nests for the larvae and queen, often leaving a trail so that other ants can find the same food source with ease. With each colony holding up to half a million ants, it is easy to see how a single ant can lead to a heavy infestation relatively quickly. Good food hygiene and D.I.Y ant control methods are usually sufficient in a residential setting, however certain types of ants can be more difficult to control, as are infestations in a commercial property. |
