Depending on where you live will depend on what kind of pests you will potentially have afflicting your home, most temperate areas will have to worry about ant control.



Fortunately these ants are one of the easiest pests to take care of the best method of treating them involves using every possible method available! This may sound like overkill but when done it will yield the best results in the least amount of time, you will want to use three methods; baited traps, perimeter treatment of your home and direct treatment of any ant nests found around your home.

To get rid of ants, start by shopping around for a good bait trap, the best kinds are of the liquid variety because ants like liquid based foods, they are easier for them to carry and eat, and this makes them more likely to take them back home to their nest to share the food with other ants. If you try to use a solid or cake kind of trap, then it might take longer or they won’t even touch the bait! Many customers have reported opening up a solid bait trap to find the cake untouched, try to use at least one or two liquid based baits and put the solid baits right next to the nest if or when you find it.



The next step involves treating the perimeter of your home against termites. You can use either a residual pesticide or a deterrent pesticide, a residual pesticide is very good for ant control because it does not irritate the ants, but when the ants move through a treated area they will eventually die off, if you use a deterring or irritating kind of pesticide then the ants will try to avoid the treated area, this might sound good but it will not have the same long-term effect against the ants, the residual will kill more ants over time while the deterring kind will kill far fewer ants.

For the quickest results you can watch the ants that are foraging around your home for a time, when the ants that are foraging for food find a food source they will carry the food back to their nest, this lets them lead you right back to their nest where you can treat their nest directly. This is highly recommended for taking care of carpenter ants, although you will need to have a good duster and a high quality dust like drone. You should contact a professional Melbourne pest control service company and make your house free from ants.
