Ants are a regular summer problem across Brisbane. Trails across the kitchen bench, nests in garden beds and pavers lifted by colonies underneath are all common calls. Some people also find ants nesting inside wall cavities or around power points. We book ant control on its own or with a rat or mouse treatment, since a visit from the pest crew is a good time to deal with both.
When you call, we ask where you see the ants and how many, give you an upfront price and book a nearby independent pest crew. The crew looks for the trails and tracks them back to the nest where they can, both inside and out. They then choose between bait, a targeted spray or a mix of both, based on the type of ant and where it is nesting.
- Ant trails traced back to nests where possible
- Bait gel placed on trails inside the home
- A spray band around the outside walls and entry points
- Nests in garden beds, pavers and garden edges treated
- Advice on food, water and plants that draw ants in
Ants often move inside after heavy rain, when their nests flood, or in hot dry spells when they go looking for water. Bait takes a few days to work because worker ants carry it back to the nest to share. Try not to spray or wipe the trails during that time, as it can break the chain. The crew will tell you how long to leave it.
Ant control across Brisbane is same-day or next-day where the run allows. Call 07 3543 7773 to book or to ask a question about the ants you are seeing.
