Local Chesilhurst Pest Control Experts

We Know South Jersey Ant Problems

We’ve been protecting Chesilhurst homes from ant infestations for years. We understand how South Jersey’s humid summers and mild winters create perfect conditions for carpenter ants and other species.

Our technicians are licensed, insured, and trained specifically in ant biology and behavior. We’re not a general pest company that treats everything the same way – we specialize in identifying ant species and using targeted treatments that actually work.

You’re working with locals who live in the same area and deal with the same pest pressures. We know which ant species are active in Chesilhurst during different seasons and exactly how to eliminate them permanently.

Our Ant Removal Process

Thorough Inspection, Targeted Treatment, Guaranteed Results

First, we conduct a comprehensive inspection to identify the ant species, locate entry points, and find the colony source. This isn’t a quick walkthrough – we examine your foundation, check moisture areas, and trace ant trails to their origin.

Next, we apply species-specific treatments that eliminate the entire colony structure. For carpenter ants, this means targeting their nesting sites in wood structures. For pavement ants, we focus on their underground colonies and foraging patterns.

Finally, we create prevention barriers and schedule follow-up visits to ensure complete elimination. You’ll receive a detailed report explaining what we found, what we treated, and how to prevent future infestations. Our guarantee means we return at no charge if ants reappear within the treatment period.

Everything Needed for Permanent Ant Elimination

Your ant control service includes species identification, colony location, targeted treatment application, and entry point sealing. We don’t just spray visible areas – we eliminate the source of your ant problem.

You also receive detailed prevention recommendations specific to your property. This includes moisture control advice, landscaping modifications, and maintenance tips that keep ants from returning. Most Chesilhurst properties have unique challenges like wooded areas or drainage issues that create ant-friendly conditions.

Every treatment comes with our service guarantee and scheduled follow-up visits. We use safe, EPA-approved products that eliminate ants without putting your family or pets at risk. Same-day service is available for urgent carpenter ant situations that threaten structural elements.

How long does it take to eliminate a carpenter ant infestation?

Most carpenter ant colonies are eliminated within 2-4 weeks of initial treatment, but you’ll see significant reduction in activity within the first few days. Carpenter ants are more challenging than other species because they nest inside wood structures and have complex colony networks. Our treatment targets both the parent colony and satellite colonies to ensure complete elimination. The timeline depends on colony size, nesting locations, and environmental factors, but our guarantee covers additional treatments if activity continues beyond the expected timeframe.

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

DIY baits only target worker ants and rarely reach the queen or eliminate the entire colony. Professional treatment identifies the specific ant species, locates nesting sites, and uses targeted methods that eliminate the colony structure. We also address the underlying conditions that attract ants, like moisture problems and entry points. Store-bought products often provide temporary relief while colonies continue growing and expanding. Our approach combines immediate knockdown with long-term prevention, which is why we can offer guarantees that DIY methods can’t match.

Are your ant control treatments safe around children and pets?

Yes, we use EPA-approved products and application methods that are safe for families and pets when applied correctly. Our technicians are trained in proper application techniques that minimize exposure while maximizing effectiveness against ants. We can also discuss organic and low-toxicity options for sensitive situations. Most treatments require brief periods where children and pets avoid treated areas, typically 2-4 hours until surfaces dry. We always explain safety precautions and provide specific instructions for your situation during the service visit.

Why do ants keep coming back after I spray them?

Surface sprays only kill visible ants while the colony continues producing new workers underground or inside wall voids. Ant colonies can contain thousands of individuals, and killing a few dozen workers doesn’t impact the colony’s survival. Additionally, many sprays actually cause colonies to split and relocate, creating multiple smaller infestations. Professional treatment targets the queen and colony structure, not just individual ants. We also identify and eliminate the attractants that draw ants to your property, preventing new colonies from establishing in the same areas.

How much does professional ant control cost in Chesilhurst?

Ant control costs vary based on infestation severity, property size, and ant species involved. Carpenter ant treatments typically cost more than pavement ant control due to the complexity of locating and treating wood-nesting colonies. Most residential treatments range from basic service calls for minor problems to comprehensive programs for severe infestations. We provide upfront pricing after inspection so you know exactly what to expect. Many homeowners find professional treatment costs less than repeated DIY attempts and prevents the structural damage that carpenter ants can cause over time.

When is ant season in South Jersey and Chesilhurst?

Ant activity in Chesilhurst typically peaks from April through October, with carpenter ants most active during warm, humid months from May through September. However, ants can remain active indoors year-round if they find warm nesting sites and food sources. Spring emergence is when you’ll notice the most dramatic increase in ant activity as colonies expand and send out scouts for new nesting locations. Early treatment in spring prevents colonies from becoming established and reduces summer infestations. Winter treatments are still effective since many ants remain active in heated structures, and early intervention prevents spring population explosions.
