Identifying an Ant Infestation: What to Look For

The presence of ants on your residential or commercial property might not always be obvious, but several signs can signal an infestation:

• Observing live ants: A small number might not seem concerning, but visible ants typically suggest a larger, hidden population. Regular sightings of ants indoors are a sign that a colony has established itself nearby.
• Ant pathways: Known for their ability to navigate, ants leave behind scent trails leading to food sources. These pathways often manifest as lines of ants moving in and out, a sign of an active colony. Spotting these pathways warrants immediate action by calling our office.
• Presence of ant mounds: Piles of soil or dirt marking colony entrances indicate a significant ant presence beneath the ground in your yard.
• Accumulation of wood debris: Carpenter ants carve into wood to create their nests, leaving behind wood debris or a substance resembling sawdust.

The Potential Dangers of an Ant Infestation

Although ants typically pose more of an annoyance, infestations can also lead to issues such as:

• Damage to property: Carpenter ants can cause structural damage as they burrow into wood, potentially leading to expensive repairs. 
• Contamination of food: Ants can carry bacteria and other contaminants, posing a risk to food safety and possibly leading to foodborne illnesses if not properly managed.
• Bites and stings: Certain ant species may bite or sting if they feel threatened, resulting in discomfort or allergic reactions for some people. Identifying the specific species involved is crucial for assessing and mitigating any health risks. We can help.
