Another day, another pest, this time Ants
ππππππππππππππ
We had a call out from a commercial customer in Kingswood as they had many ants in their premises!
One of the most common questions we get is: "Why don't you just spray them?"
The answer is simple, spraying only kills the ants you can see. The vast majority of the colony, including the queen, remains hidden away in the nest.
That's why we use professional gel baits. Worker ants are attracted to the bait and carry it back to the colony, where it's shared with other ants and the queen. This allows us to target the source of the infestation rather than just providing a temporary fix. Known in the pest control industry as "spray and pray"π
You may even notice increased ant activity around the bait initially β that's a good sign. It means the ants are feeding and taking the bait back to the nest, helping to eliminate the colony from within.
When it comes to ant control, effective treatment isn't about killing the most ants today β it's about eliminating the colony for long-term results.
If you're seeing ant activity in your home or business, get in touch for professional advice and treatment.
