Ant Colony Extermination

Eradicate persistent carpenter, sugar, and pavement ant trails by targeting the subterranean queen.

Understanding the problem

A considered response starts with the signs you have noticed.

Surface sprays only kill worker ants while the queen lays thousands more inside walls. Our protein/sugar dual baiting system is carried directly into the colony nest, destroying the queen and entire colony inside 48 hours.

Pest activity can affect comfort, food storage, property condition and the way a space is used. A professional can assess the location and activity, explain appropriate treatment options and discuss practical steps to help reduce the chance of repeat access.
