Ant trails are one of the most common pest calls across Brisbane in the warmer months. They march across benches toward sugar, pet food and sink scraps, and nest in garden beds, pavers and wall cavities. We book ant control on its own or with a mouse treatment, so one visit can deal with both. When you call, we give you an upfront price and book a nearby independent pest crew.
The crew we book traces the trails back toward the nest, both inside and out. They also check around power points and window frames, where ants sometimes nest in wall cavities. The type of ant matters. Some take sweet bait and share it through the whole colony, while others need a targeted spray around their nest. The crew picks the treatment once they see what you have.

Ants often move indoors after heavy summer rain floods their nests, or during dry spells when they search for water. Bait can take a few days to work, since worker ants carry it back to the colony. Try not to wipe or spray the trails in that time, as it breaks the chain before the bait reaches the nest. The crew will tell you how long to leave the bait before cleaning.
Ant control across Brisbane is same-day or next-day where the run allows. Call 07 3543 7772 to book or ask a question about the ants you are seeing.
