Ant Control

Get Rid Of Troublesome Ants With Owyhee Environmental

Keeping ants out of your Boise house is never an easy task. That’s because these wily little insects are always finding ways to get into your home – and are motivated to do so. Not only does your home contain various edible goodies that ants would love to get a hold of, but it also has other things they need, such as moisture and shelter. In fact, some ant species even prefer to nest in certain areas in and around your home, like wooden decks or paved driveways. You have to be vigilant to avoid ant problems, especially during the spring and summer.
One of the reasons pest control in Boise for ants is so difficult is that ants are social insects by nature. If one ant finds a suitable food source in your house, it will inform thousands of its companions. They use a complex system of pheromone trails to summon their colony members to their location and whatever food, water, or suitable sources they’ve found in your home. The good news is no amount of pheromone trails will give ants a fighting chance against our robust array of ant control products.

When we come out to your house, we will first perform a thorough inspection to see what species of ants you have and any attractants that may be drawing them to your property.
During this inspection, we will devise a treatment plan to deal with your entire infestation. This plan may include indoor or outdoor ant control or both, depending on the severity of the infestation and the location of their colonies.

Some of the species we
treat include:

Our treatment plans and control products will depend on the species you have and the locations they’re infesting. Typically, we try to get the entire infestation in one go.

Trust Us To Handle Your Ant Problem

If you already have an ant infestation, ant control can be tough to handle alone. However, if you have already gotten rid of an active ant infestation and are trying to make sure you don’t wind up with another one, there are plenty of things you can do to make your home less attractive to these pesky pests. Just follow these ant prevention tips:

Keep all indoor and
outdoor garbage cans
covered with tight lids

Store all pantry foods in
airtight containers to
mask their smells

Never leave pet foods or
dirty pet bowls sitting out

Vacuum and wipe surfaces
frequently to eliminate crumbs
that could attract ants

Fix moisture problems like
clogged drains or leaky pipes

Spray any lines of ants you see in
or near your home with vinegar
to disrupt pheromone trails

If you do wind up with an infestation, don't try to deal with it yourself.

Most of the time, the ant control products you can buy in stores will not eliminate your problem.; they will only temporarily reduce the colony’s numbers and cause it to spread out.
