Need an ant exterminator?
With years of experience in the pest control business, we understand how important it is to keep your home and family safe, especially when it comes to ants! Ant infestations can be incredibly difficult to eradicate due to their complex social structures and ability to relocate colonies quickly. Certain types of ants, like carpenter ants, can cause significant structural damage to your home. Our professional ant control solutions offer targeted solutions, expert identification of ant species, and access to powerful treatments.
Common types of ants Aimix treats
While DIY methods can work to remove a few ants, they are unlikely to fully eliminate them. Different types of ants require different ant control treatments. At Aimix, our technicians know how to get rid of ants, including odorous, carpenter, pavement, fire ants, and more.
Odorous house ants
This ant species often sneaks indoors looking for sweets and moisture, typically found around kitchens and bathrooms. A simple soapy water wipe-down and sealing of food sources can usually send them packing.
Carpenter ants
Big and bold, carpenter ants excavate wood to build their nests, so you'll often spot them in damp wood areas like around windows or under decks. Baiting with a slow-acting insecticide is crucial to reach the entire ant infestation.
Pavement ants
These tough cookies are common outdoor dwellers, but they'll wander inside for food, especially in the kitchen or near foundation cracks. A barrier treatment around the house and baiting can help keep pavement ants on the sidewalk where they belong.
Fire ants
With a painful sting and aggressive nature, fire ants build mounds outdoors but can also enter homes to search for food and water. For indoor treatment, use indoor-specific baits along their trails.
How Aimix technicians help get rid of ants
When deciding how to get rid of ants on your property, we commonly utilize non-repellent insecticides, which are undetectable to pests. Our ant exterminators will also identify and seal entry points, address conducive conditions, and utilize targeted treatments to stop future ant infestations. With Aimix ant control services, you benefit from our industry-leading expertise, reliable service, and our Aimix It Guarantee, so you can relax knowing we'll nix your pest problem and keep it nixed.

Frequently asked ant control questions
Ant control costs can vary by location, property size, infestation size, and service type. Curative services address existing infestations, which may be more costly than preventative services. With Aimix, you receive a customized plan targeting the specific ant species affecting your property. Our technicians conduct a thorough inspection to identify the species and create a treatment plan tailored to your home's needs.
Sudden ant infestations can occur for several reasons, such as changes in environmental conditions or food availability. As the weather warms up, ants may enter homes searching for food and shelter, especially if their outdoor nests are disturbed by rain or construction. Factors like leftover food, spilled liquids, or unsealed garbage can also attract ants indoors.
Common signs of an ant infestation include seeing trails of ants, especially in kitchens or near food sources, finding small nests made of dirt or soil, and noticing ants entering through cracks or crevices in walls and foundations. If you observe these indicators, you likely have an ant infestation and should consider professional ant control services to prevent the problem from escalating.
While over-the-counter ant sprays and DIY methods may seem like a quick fix, they are not effective for long-term ant control. These products do not leave any residual effects and do not address the underlying issue — the ant nest and colony. Ant queens can lay up to 800 eggs a day — the faster you receive professional ant pest control services, the better! Aimix's ant exterminators use customized treatment strategies to get rid of ants from your home and eliminate the entire colony.
Ants can nest in various places, so finding them all may be challenging. Aimix ant exterminators are the best resource for locating ant nests, as they have the expertise and tools to effectively identify and eliminate the infestation. To look for on your own, check these common places:
- Under kitchen appliances like stoves and refrigerators
- In basements, attics, and other dark, secluded areas
- Inspect your home's foundation
- Look around pantries or storage areas where food is kept
