Source: FindTrustedHelp.com — 2026 national averagesAnt infestations are among the most common pest problems in American homes. With over 700 species in the U.S., ants can contaminate food, damage wood structures (carpenter ants), and even cause electrical short circuits. Professional ant control goes beyond DIY sprays by identifying the species, locating the colony, and applying targeted treatments that eliminate the entire nest.
Our network of licensed pest control professionals uses Integrated Pest Management (IPM) techniques that combine inspection, treatment, and prevention. Rather than just killing visible ants, professionals target the queen and colony to prevent the infestation from returning — something over-the-counter products rarely accomplish.
Whether you are dealing with carpenter ants tunneling through wood, fire ants in your yard, or sugar ants invading your kitchen, our pros identify the specific species and apply the most effective treatment. Most ant problems can be resolved with a single professional treatment visit, with follow-up monitoring to ensure the colony is fully eliminated.
We make the process simple and transparent from start to finish
A licensed technician inspects your property to identify the ant species, locate entry points, and find the colony. Different species require different treatment approaches.
Based on the species and severity, your technician creates a targeted treatment plan. This may include baiting systems, perimeter sprays, dust applications, or a combination approach.
Treatments are applied to the colony location, entry points, and ant trails. Professional-grade products are more effective and longer-lasting than retail options, while remaining safe for pets and children.
A follow-up visit confirms the colony is eliminated. Your technician seals entry points and provides recommendations to prevent future infestations, such as moisture control and food storage tips.
