Ants are social insects that live and work together in colonies. In order to completely eliminate the problem, it is necessary to eradicate the colony. We use products that are attractive to ants that they will take back to their colonies where it will spread to the other ants. In most cases, both treatments are needed to completely eliminate the problem, so it is important to understand that complete results are achieved only after both the initial treatment and the follow-up visit.

Increased Ant Sightings: An uptick in the number of ants you see, particularly in areas where food is present, could indicate that a small group has turned into a large colony.
Discarded Wings: If you find small, discarded wings around your home, it could be a sign of a carpenter ant infestation. These ants swarm during mating season, and after mating, the winged ants shed their wings.
Hollow-sounding Wood: Carpenter ants burrow into wood to create nests, which can leave wood hollow. If tapping on wood in your home produces a hollow sound, it might indicate an ant infestation.
If you notice any of these signs, it's important to address the issue promptly to prevent the infestation from spreading further.
