Ants
It’s easy to underestimate the destructive power of an ant infestation in your home. More than a distraction, ants are a communal insect whose colonies can reach upwards of half a million. Once established around your home they can short out power points, weaken the structure of your home as they spread through roof voids and wall cavities, and become a constant source of frustration as they search for food. With half a million mouths to feed, that’s the potential for some serious damage. Wondering what to do about your ant infestation problem? Read on for our ant killer guide.

Signs of an ant infestation
Here’s the good news, an ant infestation is easy to see. The bad news? They’re a serious challenge to eradicate without the help of an ant exterminator.
If the following signs sound familiar, it’s time to reach out to our ant annihilation experts:
- Ant’s nests around your home. Looking like a small pile of soil, these nests hold the source of your ant problem, the queen. However, some species of ant nest in the safety of your home’s walls, so it’s important to let our professionals help.
- Ant pathways. Certain species of ants lay down pheromones, representing the presence of food, and encouraging more ants to follow.
- Live ants. The most common sign of an infestation, unsurprisingly, is a presence of live ants in your home.
