Ants are one of the most common calls we take for Springfield Lakes, usually a trail crossing the kitchen bench, along a windowsill or out through a gap near the back door. Ant control starts with working out where the trail is coming from, since treating the ants you can see without finding the nest tends to bring them straight back within a few days.
When you call 07 3543 7765 about ants, tell us where you have seen the trail and roughly how long it has been happening. The crew we book will trace the trail back towards its source, which is often a nest in the garden bed, under paving, inside a wall cavity or beneath a slab, and treat both the nest area and the entry points ants are using to get inside.
Treatment can include a spray or granules around the outside of the house, gel bait placed along trails and near entry points, and a check of garden beds and mulch close to the walls where ants like to nest. Ants can take a little longer to settle than some other pests, since bait needs time to work its way back through the colony, and the crew will explain what to expect over the next week or two.
