Early intervention can prevent a minor ant issue from becoming a major ant infestation.
Some basic tips we would recommend preventing an ant infestation would be:
- Keep the area clean – Ants are attracted to food residues so clean up spills immediately, store food in sealed containers, and keep your kitchen and dining areas crumb-free, this goes for most pests so it best to get this in order and ask colleagues to not eat at their desk to provide better controls.
- Outside – trim trees and bushes and remove any leaves or branches as these create a perfect nesting spot for ants.
- Seal entry Points: Inspect your office / home for cracks and gaps where ants can enter and use caulk to seal these openings and ensure doors and windows are properly fitted – if you require assistance our maintenance team are always on hand to help.
- Water – ensure that taps and pipes are secure and also ensure that your office or home is well-ventilated to avoid moisture buildup, as this can attract ants and other pests.
