Ant Control<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Every homeowner knows that ants can be merely a nuisance\u00a0crawling\u00a0around on surfaces\u00a0or a costly horror swarming\u00a0areas or\u00a0tunneling\u00a0through wood structures.\u00a0While some ants move through a house and\/or its surrounding landscape\u00a0without any intention of sticking around long, many stay set up colonies\u00a0near living areas\u00a0where\u00a0they can easily find food,\u00a0such as near\u00a0kitchens, dining rooms,\u00a0living rooms and\u00a0trash cans.<\/p>\n

Ant Colony Facts<\/strong><\/p>\n

Understanding ant colonies is the first step in controlling ant activities and preventing property damage:<\/p>\n

1.<\/strong> As noted by the Rutgers Cooperative Research & Extension<\/a>, New Jersey is home to far more than one or two species of ants that might require you to hire pest control services. The region hosts up to more than twelve species that prefer setting up colonies near homes, businesses and outbuildings.<\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> Some species create colonies made up of millions of ants. Yes. You read that correctly. A single colony in your home could have millions of ants in it.<\/p>\n

3.<\/strong> All colonies contain ants in various stages of development and some insecticides fail to work on ants that are still in their eggs. As a result, insecticides might need to be used several times before the existing ants die out completely.<\/p>\n
