Ant Pest Control FAQs

We address top questions to help users make informed decisions.

Ants seek food and water. Sweet foods, grease, and moisture are major attractants, as well as easy access points like gaps around windows and doors.

Common UK ants include black garden ants, Pharaoh ants, and carpenter ants. Identification involves size, colour, behaviour, and nesting habits.

Yes, carpenter ants can cause structural damage by tunneling into wood to build nests, though they do not eat the wood like termites.

DIY baits and sprays may reduce ant numbers temporarily but often fail to eliminate entire colonies. Professional control targets nests for long-term results.

Ant colonies can grow rapidly, with queens producing hundreds of eggs. Infestations can become noticeable within weeks if untreated.

Winged ants are reproductive ants leaving the colony to start new nests. Immediate professional treatment can help prevent new colonies forming.

Professional treatments use safe, approved products applied with care to protect your family and pets.

Maintain good hygiene, seal entry points, and store food properly. Regular inspections help catch infestations early.
