Ants are one of the most common reasons people in Brisbane call us. A few scouts on the bench can turn into a steady trail within a day, and once a colony finds food and water in your home it keeps sending workers back. Our job is to take your details, give you upfront pricing and book a nearby independent crew who can find where the ants are coming from and treat them at the source.
The crew we book starts with a walk around the home. They look at the trails, check the kitchen, bathroom and laundry, and then head outside to look at garden beds, pavers, downpipes and the edges of the slab or stumps. Working out the type of ant matters, because a coastal brown ant nest in the garden needs a different plan to black house ants living in a wall cavity. They also ask what you have already tried, since some sprays can scatter a colony into new nests.
- Inspection of indoor trails and outdoor nests
- Baits and gels placed where ants feed and travel
- Targeted spray around entry points and the outside of the home
- Nest treatment in garden beds, pavers and cracks
- Plain advice on food storage, drips and gaps
Baits often take a few days to work because the ants carry them back to the nest and share them. You may see a burst of activity before numbers fall. The crew will tell you what to expect and how long to keep kids and pets off any treated outdoor areas.
