Carpenter Ants take a fair bit of persistence and a little work on your behalf to get the ants under control in your home.

Prior to your call to in the pest control technician, ensure that you have a thorough inspection around your outside of your home and garden area.

The Best Carpenter Ant Control:


As carpenter ants are both sugar and protein eaters they are very comfortable while feeding on your home.

The mistake that many people make in identifying the ants is that when they see tell tale signs such as sawdust on the floors and window sills they automatically think that they have a termite problem..

The only way to dismiss this thought is to arrange for an expert in termite inspections.

Ant Baits and Treating Infestations:


Treat the outside of your home with a residual barrier insecticide like Termidor, and clear rubbish and leaves away from the home.


Kill any mature nest you may find (usually in rotting wood) by opening the nest and drenching it with boiling water or with a mixture of water and ant killer.


Structural improvements may be necessary to prevent establishment of indoor carpenter ant colonies.

When you get rid of carpenter ants from your home is simple enough if at first that you can find out where the Carpenter Ants are coming from.

If the colony is large enough, nesting carpenter ants will funnily enough actually make a noise that is similar to crunching a piece of paper. read more.
