Ant Control Singapore

The Ant Trail

Ants are a nuisance and they are everywhere. Usually their encounters are trivial. And even when their ant trail becomes pronounced, it’s easily  managed with anti ant treatment, and the trail disappears.

But when they start coming back soon after, you’ll know you have a problem that goes deeper than what you thought you knew.

 

What Attracts Ants?

Ants are attracted by the warmth, food and water that’s inside your home/workplace. Any moisture, hidden places such as foundations, and inside of walls, are where they will likely hide. Here are some signs to look out for.

  • One or two ants at a food source
  • A colony of ants
  • Ant bites, red, swollen or itchy bites
  • Place your ear to the wall to listen for ant activity
  • Check for any rotten wood in your home/workplace

 

Get Rid of Ants

Pesticides usually only provide temporary relief, this is because you need to eradicate the Queen ant to get rid of an ant problem entirely. Otherwise, the Queen will continue to breed more ants to replace the ones that have died. One way professionals get to the Queen is by leaving bait for the workers to carry back to their leader in hopes of poisoning her.

You can remove any food and water sources by keeping your house as clean as possible of these things. And block up any holes they may enter through, to prevent them entering the house, unfortunately they will search out for another way to get in when you do this.

 

Engaging A Licensed Ant Control Company

Hiring a professional company is the best way to deal with infestations of ants; it gets frustrating dealing with it alone. Ants often return once the poison runs out; a professional ant control company will have the expertise and experience to get rid of your ant problem completely. They get to the source of the problem, so the ants won’t return.
