An Army of Ants is Nothing to Shrug Off

Ants can be a serious nuisance if they colonize in or around your home or business. They enter homes and buildings through cracks and small openings, easily scaling walls to find an entrance. Ants will eat almost anything, crumbs around the house, fruit, nuts, other insects, meats, etc. Some ants can even bite or sting! Not sure what type of ant you’re dealing with?

From Joel’s Pest Control

(Don’t) Do-It-Yourself.

DIY repellents and pesticides are able to kill ants in one spot, or simply deter them from an area. But this won’t get to the root of the problem and eliminate the entire colony, and trust us – they will find another way in. A1 Exterminators uses safe and effective EPA-Certified “slow-acting bait” to stop ants at the source. Our trained technicians strategically position bait traps and let the ants do the rest. Scouts bring the bait back to their nest and share it amongst the colony until they completely eliminate themselves.

Carpenter Ants

Carpenter Ants can be very damaging to the structure of your home and they are very common in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Carpenter Ants are among the largest ants and are black or dark brownish-red colored. They prefer damp environments so they survive quite nicely with our weather near the coast. Warmer weather and moisture in the spring attract carpenter ants as they look for a new home. Carpenter ants tunnel through wood in large numbers and can cause major damage to your home.

Sugar Ants

“Sugar Ants” is actually a general term for ants and not an actual species of ants. It’s a generic name given to ants that go for sweet foods. This could actually be a crazy ant, pharaoh ant, ghost ant, odorous ant or other species. Odorous house ants walk in a line — while crazy ants are named for their sporadic turning behavior when they’re around food. Pharaoh ants are one of the most common ants found in the kitchen, and they’re most attracted to foods with protein. Ghost ants are tiny brownish ants that tend to cluster on countertops in search of food. Not sure what type of ant you’re dealing with? Check A1’s Pest-ID to see all the most common species in New England.

Pavement Ants

Pavement Ants nest under cracks in the pavement or under stones around homes and buildings. Dark brown or blackish in color, these ants have large colonies with an average of 4,000 worker ants plus queens. These ants will eat almost anything, crumbs around the house, fruit, nuts, other insects, meats, etc. These ants can also bite or sting, and contaminate food if they get in it!
