Keeping ants out of your Idaho 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 Idaho 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.
Some of the species we
treat include:
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
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. DIY attempts won’t just fail to fix your issue; they might actually make things worse.

We have been with Owyhee for several years now. Since they took over we have had very few ant problems. I am also very happy with how quickly they respond when we do. I called Kim at Owyhee this morning and she has someone scheduled to come out and treat my entry way today! Now that’s great service. I would highly recommend Owyhee to anyone.
This company is awesome! I called today to request a re-treatment for ants and Kim was so understanding and responsive to my great need to have the ants GONE! Thank you, Kim, and Owyhee Environmental for your fabulous customer service!!!
I just had Owyhee Environmental come to my house to start dealing with a recurring ant problem and so far I’m very impressed. Ivan was on time for the appointment and went above and beyond to work with me for the specific needs of my property. Highly recommend and plan to continue the relationship going forward.
We had a severe sugar ant problem, After all the treatments I haven’t seen any ants for a long time!
We needed an extra visit because of these pesky ants. Kim was able to get us on the schedule the very next day! Great customer service!
