ABOUT HOUSE ANTS

There are a variety of ants that enter homes in our area. The most common offender is the Odorous House Ant, Tapinoma sessile.  It is considered to be the most difficult of all ants to control.

Identification is easy, its a tiny dark brown ant and if you smash them you notice an odd odor.  You usually find them in kitchens or bathrooms. 

HOW WE CONTROL THEM

The entire property has to be considered.  In very general terms, we use combinations of specialized baits.  We may also carefully spray entry points outside.  Every technique our staff employees strictly adheres to EPA established label rules.
