If You Have an Ant Problem in Your Home or Business, We Have the Solutions

Customized Ant Control For Your Macomb & Oakland County, MI Home

Finding ants in your house during the warmer months of the year is not uncommon. For many homeowners, ants are a yearly problem they deal with by treating the symptoms and hoping the ants leave on their own. Although this approach can sometimes seem to work, it doesn’t get to the source of the problem, which leaves your home open to recurring ant problems. Furthermore, some ants are more than a nuisance and can be dangerous to your home or family.

Getting to the root of your ant problem requires the help of professionals who are knowledgeable about the ant species in the Macomb and Oakland County area. Maple Lane Pest Control is that company. We have been serving Macomb and Oakland County with customized pest solutions for problems of all kinds.

Our Macomb & Oakland County Ant Control Service

Ants may all look somewhat similar, but that’s where their similarities end. We’ll begin our ant control by inspecting your home to identify the species of ants in your house to provide the most effective treatments.

Knowing what species has invaded is important for a couple of reasons. First, it alerts you to the potential problems they might cause. While some ant species are simply a nuisance, others can damage your house or spread illnesses. Knowing what you’re dealing with can help you take the proper precautions against them. Second, it’s important to know what species of ant is in your house so that they can be properly treated. Different species respond better to different treatment methods and products.

Once we know what ants are in your house, we’ll tailor a treatment plan to your needs. To protect the interior of your house from ants that are outside, we’ll apply an exterior perimeter treatment and an interior baseboard treatment.

Odorous House Ants in Your Home?

If odorous house ants are in your house, we’ll use an ant gel specifically designed to eliminate these pests. Because each type of ant prefers a different flavor, we use various baits based on the ant species in your house.

A slightly more aggressive treatment plan is necessary if carpenter ants are in your house. Carpenter ants will damage the wooden structures in your home, so they must be fully eliminated. We’ll use a powder that we inject in areas where carpenter ant activity is found. In some cases, we’ll need to drill into areas in order to inject the treatment.

What Carpenter Ants Do To Your Property

Unlike other species, this one is known for causing extreme property damage given enough time and a large enough colony. They burrow deep into your own by tunneling through the wood.

Unlike termites, they don't eat the wood, meaning they also seek out food and water sources, encouraging them to spread out, making the infestation grow rapidly over time. For these reasons and more, it's always best to leave carpenter ant control in the hands of trained professionals.
