Professional Ant Control Newcastle

Many people will have encountered ants in their home or know someone who has. Some will even recognise the white powder that has been tipped all around their neighbours house and have a knowing smile. Ants are not fun when they are in your home or business due to the increasingly large numbers up to the point where they swarm on “flying ant day” normally when Wimbledon is on the TV, which is terrifying for some people with insect phobias.

The common black garden ant is the most prevalent ant that causes issues in the Newcastle area though there are other ants that cause issues including Pharoahs ant, Rogers ant and Brown ant.

How do you know you have an ant infestation?

The most obvious sign is that you see the ants coming and going in lines, often trailing from the sunny side of your house to a food source usually in the kitchen.

Other signs are bits of sand or cement typically called “ant frass” which are often pushed out of a nest area when ants are cleaning out their nest. If you have an ants nest inside you may notice this next to skirting boards or by kitchen plinths. Externally this is obvious as you will see little “mole hills” in between your paving joints where ants have pushed the sand out.

How do you treat an infestation?

There are a number of ways to tackle this but the best option is to call an experienced professional to tackle ant control in Newcastle. If you want to try the DIY route then various shops sell Amateur approved products that are not as good or as potent as what professionals use. You may end up spending more than the cost of getting a professional out!

First step is to identify the species as treatment differs for various ant species. Once this is done then the experienced professional will know where the nest is likely to be in most cases and can formulate a plan of action which will likely involve gel baits, insecticide dust or spray formulations.
