What are the signs of an ant infestation?
Signs of an ant infestation include seeing ants trailing in your home, particularly near food sources. You might also notice small piles of dirt or debris near nest sites. Some ants, like carpenter ants, can cause structural damage, so watch for signs of wood shavings.
If you suspect an ant infestation, prompt action is essential. Magna Pest Solutions offers a free inspection as part of our comprehensive ant control program. Our trained professionals can quickly identify the extent of the infestation and provide targeted treatments to eliminate these pests from your home.
Where might you find ants?
In the home, ants are commonly found in kitchens, pantries, and bathrooms where they can access food and water. They can also nest in walls, under floors, and inside appliances. Outside, ants build nests in soil, under rocks, and in woodpiles.
Geographically, ants are found worldwide and thrive in various environments, from urban areas to rural settings. They are particularly prevalent in warmer climates but can adapt to different conditions.
When are ant invasions likely to occur?
Ant invasions can occur at any time of the year, but they are often more noticeable during the warmer months. During these times, ants are more active, foraging for food and building their colonies. Rainy seasons can also trigger ant invasions as they seek higher ground to avoid flooded nests.
To protect your home year-round, consider preventative measures and regular inspections. Magna Pest Solutions’ General Pest Control Program covers most bugs, ensuring comprehensive protection.
Additionally, we offer seasonal add-ons to address specific pest challenges, providing tailored solutions to keep your home pest-free.
Why should I get rid of these?
Ants can invade homes in search of food and water, contaminating supplies and damaging property. Some species, like carpenter ants, can even cause structural damage. Eliminating them is essential to protect your home and maintain cleanliness.
