Pest Control Fuquay Varina

Ant Control

There are three different types of ants that may plague your property. Household ants are the type you may see in your kitchen. These ants will build their colony outside and send workers in to find food and water. Carpenter ants can cause damage similar to termites since they will build their colonies inside of the wood of your home. Fire ants will bite your family members or pets and can cause serious allergic reactions in some people. Fire ants will build their colonies in your yard, but they are difficult to deal with because of their extensive tunneling systems.

Ants can be difficult to eliminate because you must kill the queen to eliminate the colony. Baits that you buy at the store may only solve the problem for a short time, and then the ants will return in a few weeks. While trying to keep your home clean may help to prevent ants, it will not stop a colony that is already established. If you want to deal with your ants once and for all, contact the ant control experts at EcoTek who can perform a free ant inspection and give you a treatment plan customized for your needs.
