@idealpestcontrol: These are Carpenter Ants. Carpenter Ants establish their initial nest in decayed wood. Once established, the ants extend their tunneling into sound wood and can do a considerable amount of damage to a structure. They commonly nest in standing trees (living or dead), in stumps, or in logs on the forest floor. Since many houses are being built in forested areas, well-established, vigorous colonies are readily available in the immediate vicinity to attack these dwellings. Control: Many pest management professionals consider carpenter ants the most difficult pest to control. The only total control solution is to locate and eliminate all of the satellite nests in a structure, and if possible the parent nest which is usually outdoors. This requires considerable knowledge, skills and experience. Spraying pesticides on carpenter ants visible outside of the nests will have little or no effect on the rest of the colony (only a few workers ever leave the nests). Common domestic ant poisons available to consumers have no effect on carpenter ants although they may work on some other ant species. Home remedies such as borax and sugar are also quite useless. The best solution is to phone us at Ideal Pest Control, request an estimate and consider the cost a worthwhile investment in the future value of your home. Call us at (778) 891-9215 before these pests cost you thousands of dollars in structural damage to your home or business! #SurreyPestControl #PestControlSurrey #PestControl #YVR #SurreyBC #exterminator #fyp #foryoupage #foryou #pestcontrol #antcontrol #Ants #carpenterants #vancouverbc #vancouver #burnabybc #abbotsford #deltabc
