Some ideas to help your home in South Stradbroke Island stay free of ants
You can lower the attractiveness of your home to ants by using some basic pointers. Empty waste containers regularly, use bin liners in waste containers and remove food cans and other containers before getting rid of them. Having a large waste bin grants the ants more odds of finding this treasure trove of food. Keep bench tops and flooring 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.
