Everything You Need for Ant-Free Living

Our ant control service covers identification, elimination, and prevention. We handle carpenter ants that can damage your home’s structure, pavement ants that create unsightly mounds, and household ants that contaminate food areas.

You get safe treatments that won’t harm your family or pets, plus clear explanations of what we’re doing and why. We use professional-grade products that actually work, not the same sprays you can buy at the hardware store.

Cedar Brook properties often deal with seasonal ant activity, especially during spring and summer months. We understand these patterns and provide treatments that account for local ant behavior, giving you protection that lasts through the seasons when ant problems typically peak.

How quickly can you eliminate an ant problem in my Cedar Brook home?

Most ant problems show significant improvement within 24-48 hours of treatment, with complete elimination typically achieved within a week. The timeline depends on the ant species and the size of the infestation. Carpenter ants may take slightly longer since we need to ensure we’ve reached their nesting areas, while household ants usually respond faster to treatment. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe during our initial inspection based on what we find at your specific property.

Are your ant control treatments safe around children and pets?

Yes, we use EPA-approved treatments that are safe for families when applied correctly. We can work around your schedule to minimize any disruption, and we’ll explain any temporary precautions if needed. Many of our treatments focus on targeted application in areas where children and pets don’t typically spend time. We understand that your family’s safety comes first, and we never compromise on that to get faster results. You’ll have clear instructions about when treated areas are completely safe for normal use.

What's the difference between DIY ant control and professional treatment?

Professional ant control targets the entire colony and addresses the root cause, while most DIY methods only kill the ants you can see. Store-bought sprays often make the problem worse by causing ants to scatter and form new colonies. We identify the specific ant species, locate their nesting areas, and use targeted treatments that eliminate the source. Professional treatments also last longer and come with the knowledge to prevent future infestations, saving you time and frustration from repeated DIY attempts that don’t work.

Do you handle carpenter ants differently than regular household ants?

Absolutely. Carpenter ants require specialized treatment because they nest inside wooden structures and can cause serious property damage if not eliminated completely. We use different techniques to reach their galleries inside wood and ensure we’ve eliminated the entire colony. Household ants typically nest outdoors and trail inside for food, so the treatment approach focuses on breaking their trails and eliminating access points. Each species has different behaviors and vulnerabilities, which is why proper identification is crucial for effective treatment.

How do you prevent ants from coming back after treatment?

Prevention combines eliminating current attractants with creating barriers against future infestations. We seal entry points, address moisture issues that attract ants, and apply preventive treatments in key areas around your property. You’ll also get specific guidance on reducing food sources and conditions that attract ants to your Cedar Brook home. The key is understanding why ants chose your property in the first place and changing those conditions while maintaining protective barriers. Most customers stay ant-free for extended periods when they follow our prevention recommendations.

What should I expect during the ant control inspection and treatment?

The inspection takes 30-45 minutes as we examine your property inside and outside to identify ant species, locate trails and entry points, and assess the extent of the infestation. We’ll explain what we find and recommend the best treatment approach for your specific situation. Treatment typically takes 1-2 hours depending on your property size and the complexity of the ant problem. We’ll walk you through each step, answer your questions, and provide clear instructions for what to expect after treatment. You’ll know exactly what we’re doing and why it will solve your ant problem.
