Indoor ant baiting is often the first choice for kitchens, pantries, bathrooms and anywhere food is prepared. Instead of spraying, the crew places small amounts of gel or bait stations along the trails. The ants carry the bait back to the nest and share it, which brings the colony down from the inside. It suits many homes in Pacific Pines where ants have found their way onto the benches.
When you call, tell us which rooms have ants and whether you have young children or pets, so the crew can place baits where they will not be touched. We book a nearby independent crew and give you upfront pricing before the visit. The baiting visit usually covers:
- Finding the main trails and where they enter the room
- Placing gel bait in cracks, hinges and behind appliances
- Setting bait stations in pantries and under sinks
- Choosing baits that suit the kind of ant on the bench
- A check of window frames and door gaps where ants get in
- Clear advice on what to clean and what to leave alone
It is normal to see more ants around the bait for a day or two. That means they are feeding and carrying it home. Try not to wipe the bait away or spray over it, and keep other food sealed so the bait is the easiest meal around. Pet food bowls can be lifted or placed in a shallow tray of water to keep ants away from them. Most trails fade within a week or two, although large colonies can take longer.
