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. The common black and coastal brown ants are the ones we treat the most. 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 Ocean View. 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 important to understand the treatment is not an instant cure and can take a few weeks to a month to reduce the populations and can take a few treatments. All our ant treatments have a 12 month internal warranty and a 3 month external warranty period.
