Ant Infestations: Identification, Removal, and Control

Ants are one of the most common and persistent pests that invade homes in Texas. They can cause significant damage to property, contaminate food, and spread disease. If left untreated, ant infestations can quickly get out of hand and become a serious problem. Luckily, the experts at Texas Bug Control offer specialized ant control services to help you rid your home of these critters once and for all.

What Are Ants?

Ants are small, social insects that live in colonies. They can range in size from 1/8 to 1/4 of an inch long and come in a variety of colors including brown, black, red, and yellow. Ants feed on food sources such as sweet foods, proteins, oils and fats.

Identifying an Ant Infestation

It is important to identify the species of ant invading your home as different ants require different control measures. Common household ants found in Texas include pavement ants, carpenter ants, odorous house ants, pharaoh ants and fire ants. An experienced technician at Texas Bug Control can help you accurately identify the type of ant infesting your home so appropriate treatment can be applied.

How To Remove An Ant Infestation

The first step in removing an ant infestation is to determine the source of the problem. This can be done by inspecting your home for entry points, such as cracks or crevices, and sealing them up. It is also important to eliminate any sources of food around your home, such as pet food and open containers of sugar, cookies or cereals.

Once these steps have been taken, Texas Bug Control technicians will apply a specialized treatment plan to eradicate the ants from your home. This might include spot treatments with residual insecticides that are targeted at the nest sites, perimeter sprays around doors and windows and baits that attract worker ants back to their colony where they will spread the pesticide throughout the nest.

How To Prevent Future Infestations

Once the problem has been eliminated, it is important to take steps to prevent future ant infestations. This includes sealing up any potential entry points around your home and regularly cleaning food debris from inside and outside of your house. Texas Bug Control can also help by applying regular outdoor treatments to create a protective barrier around your property, as well as providing advice on how best to keep ants away.
