Ant Removal Process Iron Rock

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we inspect your property to identify the ant species, locate entry points, and find the colony source. This step determines everything—carpenter ants require different treatment than pavement ants or odorous house ants.

Next, we apply targeted treatments directly to the colony and affected areas using safe, EPA-approved methods. We’re not just spraying surfaces; we’re eliminating the source of your ant problem.

Finally, we seal entry points and provide prevention recommendations so ants don’t return. You’ll know exactly what we did and what to expect moving forward. Most customers see complete elimination within days, and we guarantee our work.

How quickly can you eliminate my ant problem?

Most ant problems are eliminated within 3-7 days of treatment, depending on the species and colony size. Carpenter ants may take slightly longer because we need to ensure complete colony elimination to prevent structural damage. You’ll typically see a significant reduction in ant activity within 24-48 hours. We provide follow-up service if any ants remain after the initial treatment period, and our work is guaranteed.
Yes, we use EPA-approved treatments that are safe when applied by licensed professionals. We can discuss specific concerns during your inspection and adjust our approach if needed. Many of our treatments target ants specifically without affecting people or pets. We’ll explain exactly what products we’re using and any precautions to take. Your family’s safety is our priority, and we never compromise on that.
Carpenter ants are larger, typically black, and excavate wood to build their nests—they can cause serious structural damage over time. Regular ants like pavement ants or odorous house ants are smaller and primarily looking for food sources. Carpenter ants require more aggressive treatment because they’re not just a nuisance; they’re a threat to your home’s integrity. We can identify the species during our inspection and explain what you’re dealing with specifically.
Yes, we guarantee complete ant elimination. If ants return within our guarantee period, we’ll come back and retreat at no additional cost. The guarantee length depends on the treatment type and ant species, which we’ll explain before starting work. We stand behind our results because we use proven methods and target the colony source, not just visible ants. You shouldn’t have to pay twice for the same problem.
Ant control pricing depends on your property size, ant species, and infestation severity. We provide upfront pricing after our inspection so you know exactly what you’re paying before we start. Most homeowners find professional treatment costs less than repeated DIY attempts, especially when you factor in guaranteed results. Carpenter ant treatment may cost more initially but saves thousands in potential structural repairs. We’ll give you a clear quote with no surprises.
Store-bought sprays typically kill visible ants but don’t eliminate the colony or queen. The ants you see are just workers—the real problem is the hidden colony that keeps producing more ants. Additionally, many DIY treatments actually cause ants to scatter and create satellite colonies, making the problem worse. Professional treatment targets the colony source and uses products that ants carry back to eliminate the entire population. That’s why our results last while DIY solutions don’t.
