Ants usually turn up as a trail heading to a food source in the kitchen, or as nests appearing in paving, garden beds and along outdoor fence lines. Around Booval, warmer months bring more activity, with trails often running along the edge of a path or the base of a wall straight to an open bin or pantry. Some species nest under a slab or paving and only show up inside during wet weather, which can make a problem seem to come and go.
The crew we book traces a trail back to find where ants are entering the house and, where it can be found, the nest itself outside. Treatment goes down at entry points and along the trail, so it gets carried back into the nest rather than only dealing with the ants out and visible on the day. Spraying what you can see rarely solves the problem for long, since the nest itself is left untouched.
Outdoor nests in paving, garden beds and under slabs are treated directly where they can be found, and gaps around windows, doors and pipe penetrations are noted as spots worth sealing to cut off trails into the kitchen or laundry down the track.
