Ants are one of the most common pest calls across Brisbane. They stream along benches, into pantries and pet bowls, up walls and between pavers, and in the warm months they can seem to arrive overnight. Courtyards and balcony pots are common nest sites in inner-city units. Ant treatment finds where the trails start and treats the nest and entry points, rather than just wiping away the ants you can see.
The crew we book traces the trail from the kitchen, bathroom or pet area back to where the ants get inside, then looks for the nest outdoors. Common spots include garden beds, cracks in concrete, under pavers, along the base of walls and inside wall cavities. Nests under pavers are easy to miss until the sand starts piling up. Different ants need different baits and sprays, so the crew picks the approach that suits.
- Tracing trails back to nests and entry points
- Baits for ants that carry food back to the colony
- Treatment of paths, pavers and the base of the house
- Attention to kitchens, pantries and bathrooms
- A check of pot plants and planter boxes for nests
- Pointers on food storage and sealing small gaps
After a baiting treatment, try not to spray or wipe the trails for a few days, as the ants need to carry the bait back to the nest. Keep benches clean and sweet foods sealed. Ants in Brisbane often get busier just before summer rain, so a treatment early in the warm season can save a lot of frustration.
