| Ants have elbowed antennae | Carpenter Ant Worker |
When compared to the challenge of eliminating bed
bug infestations, ants are probably the next in line.
With over 570 different kinds of ants in the United
States, fewer than 30 types infest our buildings, with
10 types considered important pest species. Some are
nocturnal and some forage for food during daylight
hours. Here in the Northeast, we regularly encounter
carpenter, pavement, Citronella, Pharaoh, and acrobatic
ants. Of these, carpenter ants can cause structural
damage to a home or commercial building.
Ant control most often cannot be solved with over-the-counter remedies. Proper identification of the ant problem, coupled with a thorough inspection to find the source of the infestation is the key to successful ant control and prevention. Amendt Pest Control’s highly-trained and State-certified sales and service technician staff have years of experience in finding the location of the colony and solving those pesky ant problems.
The next time you see that trail of ants heading for the pet food dish or bumbling around the kitchen or other rooms in your home, give Amendt a call.
