An ant perimeter barrier is a treatment applied around the outside of the home, where the walls meet the ground and along paths, weep holes and window frames. Ants crossing the treated band pick up the product and carry it back to the nest. For many homes in Pacific Pines, it is the main way to cut down the trails that keep turning up in kitchens and bathrooms.
When you call, we ask about the size of the home, the kind of garden and whether there are pets or a pool. We also ask whether you have had any ant treatments before and when. That helps us give you upfront pricing and book a nearby independent crew with the right gear for your yard. A perimeter visit usually includes:
- A treated band around the outside walls and slab edge
- Treatment of weep holes, pipe entries and gaps around doors
- Treatment along paths, driveways and the edges of garden beds
- Spot treatment of any nests found during the visit
- A look at trees and shrubs touching the roof or gutters
- Advice on trimming plants and mulch back from the walls
The crew will explain how long to keep children and pets off treated areas and what to avoid, such as hosing down the walls or pressure cleaning paths for a while afterwards. Barriers wear down over time. Sun, rain and garden work all break them down, so many households in the area book a treatment each year, often in spring before the busy season.
