Some thoughts to help your home in Nudgee stay free of ants
You can reduce the attraction of your property to ants by using some simple recommendations. If you go and check your trash bin area now and see containers that are crammed with food waste on the ground, you can be pretty sure that if you don't have an ant problem by now that you will have one before long. Keep bench tops and floors clear of food scraps and waste and clean often. Something a lot of families overlook when it comes to preventing ant infestations is how and where they feed the family pets. Make sure that they are never fed inside the house and keep their feed area clean and tidy. Stopping ants getting inside the house is another good step to take. Take a look around the outside of your property, wherever you find the trail of ants leads to, take action to prevent them getting in. While DIY methods can be of temporary assistance using a pest control company to complete a program of preventative treatments and inspections is by far the best option. This treatment is not for specific infestations but will keep breaking any breeding cycles of Cockroaches, Ants, Silverfish & Spiders.
No matter where you are on the planet you are probably going to come in contact with ants
Although it may be hard to believe, in Australia there are well over 1000 different species of ants. Some of them can be quite dangerous with a nasty bite and some will just co-habitate with us peacefully. However it's quite rare for us to have to deal with the more exotic species of ants when helping homeowners get rid of the pests. As every species of ants has different characteristics we have to adjust the type of treatment that we use to get rid of an infestation in Nudgee. Different ant species will behave differently when it comes to feeding, breeding and the way they move about the property. Depending upon the circumstances of each case we will look at implementing as many different types of treatment that we think will be most effective. We are able to apply treatments directly to the paths that the ants will use. These treatments will be toxic to the ants and so help resolve the infestation problem. It is very rare to find that you are able to solve an ant infestation immediately. This is why we will use as many different approaches over several sessions to get the desired results. All our ant treatments have a 12 month internal warranty and a 3 month external warranty period.
