Ants

During the spring and summer months, one of the most common pests to harass St. Mary’s, Georgia and surrounding area homes and businesses are ants. As social insects, ants work together in teams to find food in homes or businesses and deliver it to their colony. When you find one ant in your home, be prepared to find hundreds more later on.

Don’t worry, Pest Authority of the Golden Isles is here to help you get rid of these pesky infestations. Our Barrier 360 pest control treatment stops pests before they can even enter your home. Barrier 360 creates an ant-proof boundary when applied to the exterior of your home or business that prevents them from getting inside. Please note that while Barrier 360 works against most types of ants, fire ants and carpenter ants might require specialized treatment.

Ant Prevention Tips:

  • Buy tight-fitting lids for all interior and exterior garbage cans and secure them after every use.
  • Store all of your food either in tightly sealed plastic or glass containers or in the refrigerator.
  • Create a border around your home or business’s foundation with stone or gravel to prevent ant colonies from building nests near any entry points to your building.
  • Clean up all crumbs, dirty dishes, and spills from every meal and don’t leave them out on counters or in sinks.
