IDENTIFICATION & TREATMENT

Look beyond the insect you can see.

Visible ant activity may follow a route through a small opening or toward a food source. Identification and an assessment of the affected areas help guide treatment.

Activity and access

A provider may examine trails, concealed areas and openings around doors, pipes or building edges.

A treatment suited to the pest

The pest type, location and conditions influence the approach and whether follow-up service is appropriate.

Habits that discourage indoor activity.

Store food securely

Keep dry goods in closed containers and clean crumbs from shelves and counters.
