Ants

ant pest control Covington
In pest control, if we had one word to describe ants it would be determined. For these little intruders, the word “quit” is not in their vocabulary. That’s why it can be so frustrating when ants invade your home. You spray and you squish, but they just keep coming and coming! Sometimes it just makes more sense to bring in a  professional. At TrueNature Pest Control, we know how to get rid of ants. We’ve been protecting homes from ant invasions for years!

Common Problems with At Home Ant Treatments

A common problem with many over-the-counter ant treatments is that they are just simple contact-killers. That’s why you may stop seeing them for a few days (or hours)  and then suddenly they’re right back at it again. Ants can be very determined and very clever. They learn quickly to avoid certain areas and certain treatments. That’s why it’s important to use the right assortment of products in the proper way.

How TrueNature Treats Ants

When TrueNature Pest Control treats for ants, we come prepared with the safest and most effective products on the market, and we have a tried-and-tested method for protecting your home. First, we speak with each customer and do a thorough inspection to determine the extent of the problem we’re dealing with. We then use a variety of professional-grade products including baits, non-repellants, and also products with some repellant features as well. We work thoroughly both inside and outside of the  home to provide effective ant control. ant exterminator Covington

Ant Pest Control in Louisiana

In southeast Louisiana here in the NorthShore, there are many different types of ants. Fire ants are notorious for building big mounds in the yard that you definitely don’t want to step in. Pharaoh ants are perfectly evolved to live in the cavities of your home’s walls and can have multiple queens. If you spray those guys incorrectly, the colony is stressed and divides into two separate colonies! If you’d like a little professional insight in the battle against ants in your home, TrueNature Pest Control would be happy to help you out!

When Should I Call an Ant Exterminator to Eliminate My Pest Problem?

Call an ant exterminator if any of these circumstances happen: 
  1. Any stinging ant: Ever heard of fire ants? They aren’t just annoying. They have a stinger that makes your skin itch for days. Honestly, these guys inflict painful bites and suck big time. 
  2. Sawdust piles or wood shavings underneath door jambs, window sills, or baseboards: Carpenter ants. Unlike plain old annoying bed bugs, carpenter ants are much worse. These not-so-common pests can severely damage your property by excavating wooden structures and forming tunnels to build their nest. 
  3. Several ant trails or ant paths: If you’ve seen several ant trails or a trail of ants multiple times, it could be a sign you have an ant infestation or worse – an ant colony. 
Now, if your home has plain ol’ black ants, DIY methods can work.  But when you have a mature ant colony in your home, you need a pest control company or licensed exterminator to drive these pests away.  A mature ant colony has between 20,000 to 50,000 ants! How would you get rid of this? That’s where an ant exterminator and pest control service comes in. 

How Does an Ant Exterminator Eliminate Ants and Pests?

Here’s a breakdown of the steps an ant exterminator takes to eliminate ants and pests: 
  1. An ant exterminator performs a thorough inspection to determine the species that’s infested your home. You can’t solve pest infestations if you don’t know what’s causing the problem. 
  2. Create a species-specific solution. If your home is infested with black ants, the treatment differs from a carpenter ant infestation. 
  3. Seal the exterior of your home. Exterminators seal paths or openings to protect your home. Salt and peppermint oil are effective barriers against ants. 
  4. Store all potential food sources of ants in sealed containers. 
  5. An ant exterminator will follow the trail of ants that lead directly to the colony. A common treatment used is residual repellent dust. However, this will depend on the species you’re dealing with. 
Why treat the colony? The colony is the source of your ant problem. Even if you eliminate 5,000 ants but the colony is intact, the queen ant will just create more soldier ants to infest your home. 

Is It Possible to Permanently Solve My Pest Problem?

The best permanent solution depends on two factors: 
  1. Is your infestation treated by an ant exterminator or a pest control service?
  2. Do you follow pest management preventive methods?
We hate to be the ones to tell you this, but we care about your health and safety: Over-the-counter sprays don’t fix your ant problem in the first place.  As a pest control company that’s performed several pest control services, these pest management sprays only kill ants on the spot. It doesn’t solve your pest infestations. It saves you the hassle of spending extra dollars and it’s convenient, however, these products don’t have lasting or permanent effects.  You’ll buy sprays for the rest of your life but still have thousands of ants crawling in your home.  Ant Control tip: Store food sources in sealed containers that’s harder for ants to reach like mason jars, freezers, resealable Ziploc bags, etc.  Second, make it harder for ants to infest your home. If you’re not sure how to do this, our highly trained team of exterminators at True Nature Pest Control is happy to show you how.  You can call us at 985-900-2233 or fill out the form for a free quote!
