Ant Control In Nampa, ID
All The Things That Attract Ants To Your Property
Ants can be some of the hardest pest species to get rid of in the Nampa area because our properties are often the most convenient food source for these tiny scavengers. Why would they look for food outside when they can get it from your pantry or your kitchen counter? Ants are far from just unsightly. They can also be serious threats. This means you'll need to take ant control measures to prevent these little six-legged scavengers from eating you out of house and home.
The bad news is ant control in Nampa, Boise, Meridian, and Middleton is easier said than done. Ants are social pests, which means they can tell each other how to get into your home. So smashing one ant or spreading a few granules around is not going to work on them. The good news is you don't have to go it alone. Pristine Green Pest Defense will be right by your side.

Are ants dangerous?Certain ant species can be very dangerous. For instance, carpenter ants are incredibly dangerous to your property. These big, strong ants tunnel through wood to build their nests, just like termites do. And, just like termites, they can do serious and costly damage to the wood of your home. Pharaoh ants are another dangerous species in Idaho because of the diseases they spread, such as salmonella and streptococcus.

Our Ant Control Process
Effective ant control is a multistep process that begins with knowing what you're dealing with. That's why the first thing we do when we come out to your home is perform a thorough inspection. We will check kitchens, bathrooms, and all the other places ants commonly hang out inside your home. We will also look for ant entry points around the outside of your home to find out where they are gaining access. Not only does the inspection allow us to figure out where ants are entering and where they are living in your home, but it also helps us figure out what species we are dealing with, which can impact our treatment plan.
Once we formulate a treatment plan customized to your situation, we will put that plan into action during our initial visit. We have a comprehensive ant control program that includes multiple products. We use liquid treatments indoors along baseboards and around entryways. We also use granular treatments both indoors and outdoors. Ants spread these bait treatments themselves, which eventually eliminates the colony.
To prevent ants from coming back, we generally recommend a bi-monthly or quarterly treatment plan to deal with any emergent re-infestation. Our warranty also allows you to call for a retreatment between your scheduled visits, though this is usually only necessary for severe infestations. Most of the time, you will see ant activity around your house take a nosedive the first time we perform a treatment, and retreatments are simply preventative.

Let Pristine Green Pest Defense Protect You
Getting rid of ants after you already have an infestation can be a serious hassle. Ant colonies are complex and often massive entities that are difficult to eradicate entirely. What often ends up happening is you get rid of a portion of your ant infestation while leaving the rest to recover. This is especially true if you do not eliminate the queen. If you fail to eliminate the queen, she will just continue to lay eggs until the ant population rebounds, and you have to start all over again.
Here at Pristine Green Pest Defense, our pest experts are lean, mean, ant fighting machines. We always stay abreast of the latest and greatest ant control solutions to ensure that we are capable of not only getting rid of the queen but eliminating the entire colony rather than just temporarily reducing its numbers. With us, you can get rid of your whole ant infestation instead of just part of it.
