Ant Removal Process

Simple Process, Lasting Results

First, we identify the ant species and locate their entry points and nesting areas. Different ants require different approaches, so this step determines everything that follows.

Next, we apply targeted treatments that eliminate the entire colony – not just the workers you see. We use professional-grade products that reach the queen and larvae, stopping reproduction at the source.

Finally, we seal entry points and create protective barriers around your home’s perimeter. You’ll get specific recommendations for preventing future infestations, plus follow-up service to ensure the problem stays solved.

Complete Ant Control Solutions

What's Included in Every Service

Every ant control service includes species identification, colony location, and complete elimination treatment. We don’t just spray visible areas and call it done.

You’ll receive entry point sealing, perimeter protection, and detailed prevention recommendations specific to your property. Pine Hill’s wooded areas and older homes create unique ant pressure points that we address systematically.

Our service comes with a guarantee and follow-up inspection to verify elimination. If ants return within the warranty period, we return at no additional cost to re-treat the problem.

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

Most ant colonies are eliminated within 7-14 days of initial treatment, but you’ll see a dramatic reduction in activity within 24-48 hours. Carpenter ants may take slightly longer because their colonies are typically larger and more established. The timeline depends on colony size, species, and how long they’ve been established in your home. We provide follow-up service to ensure complete elimination and will re-treat if any activity persists beyond our guarantee period.
Yes, we use treatment methods that are safe for families when applied correctly by licensed professionals. We offer eco-friendly options for households with specific concerns about chemical exposure. Our technicians will explain exactly what products we’re using and any temporary precautions you should take during application. Most treatments allow normal household activities to resume within a few hours. We prioritize both effectiveness and safety in every service we provide.
Store-bought sprays only kill the worker ants you see, but they don’t reach the colony’s queen or larvae. The colony simply sends out more workers to replace the ones you killed. Professional treatments target the entire colony structure, including the reproductive center. We also identify and treat the specific ant species in your home, since different species respond to different treatment approaches. DIY products are designed for general use, not the targeted elimination that actually solves ant problems permanently.
Ant control costs vary based on the severity of infestation, ant species, and size of treatment area. Most Pine Hill homeowners invest between $150-$400 for complete colony elimination, which is often less than what people spend on multiple failed DIY attempts. We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees or surprise charges. Carpenter ant treatments may cost more due to the complexity of eliminating these larger colonies, but preventing structural damage saves thousands in potential repair costs.
Carpenter ants are larger, typically black, and actually damage your home’s wooden structure by excavating galleries for their nests. Regular house ants are smaller and primarily interested in food sources, not wood. Carpenter ants create sawdust piles near their nesting areas and can weaken structural elements over time. They’re more common in Pine Hill’s wooded areas and older homes with moisture issues. Both require professional treatment, but carpenter ants need more aggressive elimination methods due to their larger colonies and structural threat.
Prevention starts with eliminating moisture sources like leaky pipes, poor drainage, and damp basements that attract ants. Keep food in sealed containers and clean up crumbs promptly, especially sweet substances that draw scout ants. Trim tree branches and shrubs away from your home’s exterior to remove ant highways. We’ll seal the specific entry points we identify during treatment and apply perimeter protection. Regular maintenance treatments during peak ant season help maintain that protection, especially in Pine Hill’s heavily wooded neighborhoods where ant pressure is constant.
