Ants are one of the most common pests in Caboolture, and they tend to get worse after rain and in the warmer months. You might see trails across kitchen benches, nests pushing up between pavers or along the driveway, or ants coming in along skirting boards and window frames. On larger blocks, ant nests in garden beds and around tank stands are common too.
When you book ant control, the crew we book will look for where the ants are coming from rather than just spraying the trails. They use baits that worker ants carry back to the nest, along with an outdoor treatment around the house where ants are getting in. Nests in paths, garden beds and driveway edges can be treated directly. Because ants are also food for some spiders, dealing with them can help cut down spider numbers too. Tell us the size and colour of the ants and where you see them most, as this helps the crew plan the right approach and bring what they need for your home.

Avoid spraying or wiping ant trails with household spray in the days before the visit, as this can scatter the nest and stop baits from working. Keep sweet foods and pet food sealed, wipe up spills and fix leaks. Some ant types take longer to settle than others, and the crew will explain what to expect for the ants at your place.
If ants are marching through your home in Caboolture, call 07 3543 7767. We will give you a price upfront and book a local crew, on its own or together with spider control.
