Ants are busy across Caboolture for most of the year, and they really show up after summer storms. Common calls include black ants trailing across kitchen benches, tiny ants in the bathroom, big mounds in lawns and ants pushing sand up between pavers and along the driveway. On acreage, nests can sit around tank stands, sheds and fence posts.
The crew we book looks for where the ants are coming from rather than only where they are going. They trace trails back to the nest where they can, then treat the nest and the ground around the outside of the home, including the edge of the slab or stumps, garden beds, paving joints and weep holes. Inside, they may place ant baits along trails so workers carry the bait back to the colony and reach the queen.
For a few days after treatment it is normal to see ants still moving about. Try not to wipe away trails or spray them, since the ants need to walk through the treated zone and take bait back. Keep sweet foods and pet food sealed and rinse out drink bottles before they go in the recycling. If ants keep turning up in one room, mention it so the crew can place extra bait along that trail.
