Our expert technicians offer effective solutions to eliminate ants and prevent their return. Let us help you maintain a clean and ant-free environment.

Why Ants Are a Problem

Ant infestations can cause several issues, including:

  • Food Contamination: Ants can contaminate food and surfaces, posing a health risk.
  • Structural Damage: Certain species, like carpenter ants, can damage wooden structures in your home.
  • Persistent Infestations: Ant colonies can be difficult to eliminate due to their ability to quickly relocate or reproduce.

Understanding Ants: Key Facts

  • Common Species: Common ants include black garden ants, pharaoh ants, and carpenter ants.
  • Behavior: Ants are social insects that live in large colonies, working together to forage for food and build nests.
  • Diet: Most ants are attracted to sweet or greasy foods, but different species have varying dietary preferences.
  • Nesting: Ants build nests in soil, walls, under pavements, or inside wooden structures.

Signs of an Ant Infestation

Look out for these signs to detect an ant infestation early:

  • Visible Ant Trails: Lines of ants traveling to and from food sources.
  • Nests: Small piles of soil or dirt near entry points, indicating nesting activity.
  • Food Contamination: Finding ants inside food containers or near sugary spills.
  • Discarded Wings: Winged ants (swarmers) may indicate a new colony is forming indoors or nearby.

If you spot these signs, don’t wait—contact TDS Pest Control for expert ant management.

Why Ants Enter Your Home

Ants are drawn to properties by:

  • Food Sources: Leftover crumbs, sugary spills, or uncovered food attract ants.
  • Moisture: Leaky pipes or standing water can create an ideal environment for ants.
  • Shelter: Ants build nests in warm, sheltered areas, such as wall voids or under appliances.

Preventing Ant Infestations

Keep ants away with these simple yet effective tips:

  1. Clean Regularly: Wipe surfaces, vacuum frequently, and store food in airtight containers.
  2. Eliminate Moisture: Fix leaks and dry damp areas to make your home less inviting.
  3. Seal Entry Points: Use caulk to block cracks and gaps around windows, doors, and walls.
  4. Manage Waste: Use bins with tight-fitting lids and take out the trash regularly.
  5. Trim Vegetation: Keep plants and shrubs away from the foundation of your home to prevent easy access.
