Ants in North Lakes usually turn up in one of two ways: a trail across the kitchen bench heading for something sweet, or nests building up under paving, garden edges or retaining walls outside. Warm, dry spells often send them looking indoors for water, which is why kitchens and bathrooms see the most activity over summer. Small black ants, coastal brown ants and the odd bigger bull ant all turn up in North Lakes gardens, and the type you are dealing with changes where the nest is likely to be.
The crew we book will trace the trail back toward its source where possible, check outdoor nesting spots such as garden beds, paving joints and the base of external walls, and look at how ants are getting indoors through gaps around doors, windows or the slab edge. Treating the nest itself tends to work better than only treating the trail you can see inside.
Homes in North Lakes with leafy gardens, retaining walls or paved courtyards often have more nesting spots for ants than a plainer yard, so a visit may cover more of the outdoor area than the inside of the house. Either way, the crew will explain what they found before they start. Wiping up crumbs and spills quickly and keeping pet food bowls from sitting out overnight both help keep a trail from forming again once the treatment has settled in around the home.
