Ants are a year-round problem in Stafford, but they tend to march inside after heavy rain and during the hotter months. Some people see small black ants on the kitchen bench, others find brown ants in the bathroom or large ants making mounds in the lawn and between pavers. When you call, tell us what the ants look like, where the trails start and whether they bite, and we will pass that on to the crew.
The crew we book starts by looking for the trail, the entry point and, where possible, the nest. Many ant problems are handled with baits the workers carry back to the colony, while other nests in the ground or garden edges are treated directly. Outside, the crew often treats the base of the walls and paths to cut off the routes ants use to get indoors.

Before the crew arrives, avoid spraying the trails with household sprays, as this can scatter the ants and make them harder to trace. Wipe up sugary spills, keep pet food sealed and hold off on mopping the floors along the trail. After the visit, you may see more ants for a day or two as they collect the bait, which is normal.
