Ant Control in Richmond & Surrounding Areas
When you’re enjoying your home or entertaining company, the last thing you want to see are ants. When ants invade your home through cracks and doorways, they seek out food sources, like your kitchen cabinets and pantry. If you see one ant, there are usually more to follow. It can be tough to get rid of ants on your own due to the invisible pheromone trail they leave behind to guide their colony to food sources, which can quickly lead to an infestation. At Pest Solutions, our ant control services are proven effective so you can stop sharing your kitchen with ants. Count on Pest Solutions to protect your home — call our experts at 804-448-1170.
The Importance of Professional Ant Extermination
Ants are one of the most common pest infestations in the country. When ant colonies invade your home it can be difficult to manage with DIY methods because they are not effective. This is why contacting a professional exterminator like Pest Solutions is the best choice.
Ants are a nuisance, but they can pose a threat to your home depending on the species. Carpenter ants destroy wood and can damage the structure of your property. Other species, like fire ants, can sting if you encounter their nest.
