Your Kitchen Stays Clean and Ant-Free

You’ll walk into your kitchen without scanning the counters for ant trails. No more throwing away contaminated food or feeling embarrassed when guests come over.

Our Ant Control Process

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we inspect your property to identify the ant species and locate their entry points. Different ants require different approaches, so proper identification matters for effective treatment.

Next, we treat the colony source, not just the ants you see. We use targeted baits and treatments that worker ants carry back to eliminate the entire colony, including the queen.

Finally, we seal entry points and apply preventive barriers around your home’s perimeter. You’ll know exactly what we did and what to expect going forward. Most customers see complete elimination within 7-14 days, and we follow up to ensure the problem stays solved.

Complete Ant Elimination Service

What's Included in Your Treatment

Your service includes a thorough property inspection, species identification, and customized treatment plan. We don’t use one-size-fits-all approaches because carpenter ants need different treatment than pavement ants or odorous house ants.

You get targeted colony elimination using professional-grade products that aren’t available to consumers. We focus on entry point sealing and perimeter protection to prevent new infestations.

Laurel Springs homes often have ant problems around foundation cracks, window frames, and areas where moisture creates ideal conditions. We address these specific vulnerabilities based on your property’s layout and the local environment. Every treatment comes with follow-up service to ensure complete elimination.

How long does it take to completely eliminate an ant problem?

Most ant infestations are completely eliminated within 7-14 days of treatment. You’ll typically see a significant reduction in ant activity within the first 48 hours, but complete colony elimination takes longer because worker ants need time to carry treatment back to the nest and affect the entire colony, including the queen. Carpenter ant colonies can take slightly longer due to their size and behavior patterns. We schedule follow-up visits to monitor progress and ensure the problem is fully resolved.

Are your ant control treatments safe around children and pets?

Yes, we use EPA-approved products and application methods designed for homes with families and pets. Our treatments target ants specifically and are applied in ways that minimize exposure to your household. We use bait stations and targeted applications rather than broad spraying whenever possible. After treatment, we provide specific guidelines about any temporary precautions, though most of our methods allow normal household activities to continue immediately. Your family’s safety is always our first priority in choosing treatment approaches.

Why do store-bought ant sprays and baits not work long-term?

Consumer products typically only kill the ants you see, not the colony producing them. Ant colonies can contain thousands of individuals, and killing a few dozen workers doesn’t impact the source. Many over-the-counter sprays actually make problems worse by causing colonies to split and relocate. Professional treatments use targeted baits that worker ants carry back to eliminate the entire colony, including the queen. We also identify and treat multiple colonies if present, something homeowners often miss when they focus only on visible ant trails.

How do you prevent ants from coming back after treatment?

Prevention involves sealing entry points and eliminating conditions that attract ants. We identify and seal cracks around foundations, windows, and doors where ants typically enter. We also address moisture issues and food sources that draw ants to your property. Our perimeter treatments create a protective barrier that deters new colonies from establishing near your home. We provide specific recommendations for landscaping and maintenance practices that reduce future ant problems. Most customers remain ant-free for years after proper treatment and prevention measures.

Can carpenter ants actually damage my home's structure?

Yes, carpenter ants can cause significant structural damage over time. Unlike termites that eat wood, carpenter ants excavate galleries in wood to build their nests, weakening structural elements. They prefer moist or damaged wood, often targeting areas around windows, doors, roofs, and foundations. Large colonies can hollow out substantial amounts of wood, compromising structural integrity and requiring expensive repairs. Early detection and professional treatment are crucial because carpenter ant damage often occurs in hidden areas like wall voids and crawl spaces where problems aren’t visible until damage is extensive.

What's the difference between different types of ants in New Jersey?

New Jersey homes commonly deal with carpenter ants, pavement ants, and odorous house ants, each requiring different treatment approaches. Carpenter ants are larger, black or dark brown, and nest in wood structures where they can cause damage. Pavement ants are smaller, brown, and typically nest under sidewalks and foundations, often entering homes seeking food. Odorous house ants are tiny, dark brown or black, and emit a distinctive smell when crushed. Proper species identification is essential because effective treatments vary significantly. Our technicians are trained to identify local ant species and customize treatment accordingly.
