Signs Of An Ant Infestation
Seeing ants inside your Phoenix home is a good sign that you have a problem. Now, just because these pests have gotten indoors does not mean that their nest is inside. Often, ants build large colonies around the exterior of buildings and use small gaps, cracks, and other entry points to get indoors. Only a few species in our area will build nests inside wall voids or within wooden structures. The only way to truly know the severity of your problem is to bring in a professional for a pest inspection. At ACTION Termite & Pest Control, we offer detailed inspection services to help local homeowners understand their risks. We will be happy to pay your home and property a visit.
What To Expect From Professional Ant Control
Professional ant control does not take much time, but it does require a fair amount of training and experience. When one of our service team members visits, they will first seek to identify where problems are occurring, looking for nests and identifying the entry points these pests use to get into your home. We will then use treatments in targeted areas to cull existing populations and create an invisible pest control barrier around your home’s exterior to deal with future invaders. The best part is that we do not just treat to eliminate ants. Our general pest control includes a wide range of problematic pests.
Tips To Prevent Ant Reinfestation
Now that you know a bit more about ant control in Phoenix, let’s talk about some ways you can prevent a future infestation. In addition to professional services, the following tips are effective at keeping pests at bay:
- Use caulk or liquid cement to seal gaps and cracks around your home’s exterior foundation.
- Make sure all of your exterior doors and windows have good weatherstripping.
- Repair and replace damaged screens around your home.
