Several ant species can be found across Melbourne, each presenting different challenges:
Black House Ants: Frequently found in kitchens, drawn to sweet foods.
Coastal Brown Ants: These ants often nest in walls and can cause structural issues.
Bull Ants: Larger in size and more aggressive, these ants have painful stings.
Understanding which species has invaded your property allows our technicians to develop a specific treatment plan to target and manage the infestation.
Early detection can prevent a full-scale infestation. Some signs that indicate the presence of ants include:
Scent trails: Ants create visible trails as they follow each other to food sources.
Small dirt mounds: Ants sometimes build nests outside, leaving small piles of soil around foundations or gardens.
Food contamination: Ants are attracted to food, especially sugary and greasy items, leading to contaminated food supplies.
If these signs are present in your home or business, it may be time to contact Rentokil’s expert pest control team.
Rentokil uses a combination of modern techniques to ensure successful and safe ant control.
Our ant control process starts with a thorough inspection to determine the type of ants and the extent of the infestation. Identifying the species helps us develop an effective strategy tailored to your situation.
Once the infestation is identified, we monitor the ant activity to select the most appropriate treatment method. Continuous monitoring ensures the problem is addressed completely, and any further issues are prevented.
Baiting is a highly effective method that targets ants at their source. Ants collect the bait and bring it back to the colony, which helps reduce the entire nest over time.
For immediate control, Rentokil offers targeted insecticide sprays and dust treatments. These methods work well for reaching hidden nests in hard-to-access areas, such as cracks in walls and foundations.
