Ants are among the most common household pests, found in a variety of environments across the globe. They are small, highly adaptable insects that can vary in color, size, and behavior depending on the species. Many ants are attracted to food sources, particularly sugary items, proteins, and other readily available scraps, making kitchens, pantries, and entry points like doors and windows frequent hotspots for activity.
Once established, an ant infestation can be challenging to control due to their ability to navigate small spaces and establish colonies in hidden areas. In addition to being a nuisance, ants can contaminate food and surfaces as they forage.
For effective and lasting control, professional pest management is often recommended to properly identify the ant species and implement a targeted treatment plan.
