Exterminating Ants: What You Should Know

Ants in your home can be frustrating. These pests may be in abundance outside of your home, but when they are inside, it's a problem. These pests can be anywhere in your home, building a nest with their colony, looking for water and food to feed them all. If you find that you have ants in your home, you need to take action before they take over your home and you find them in more than just one place throughout your house. You may end up finding them all over your home, in which case you may have an infestation. Read on for some tips to help you exterminate these pests from your home.

Set Out Ant Traps 

Set ant traps throughout your home wherever you have seen these pests. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the traps to see how to set them up and where you should place them. You should set them anywhere that you have seen signs of these pests, or where you have seen the actual pests. Replace the traps with new ones every couple of days until you no longer see any more of these pests.

Spray Your Baseboards And Perimeter

Spray a pesticide around the baseboards of your home. These pests may be crawling around along the baseboards or around the perimeter of your home. Spray these areas with the pesticide and spray daily until you are rid of these pests. You should spray the perimeter of your home on the exterior as well.

Set A Bug Bomb

Use a pesticide bomb to kill these pests, as well as any other pests that you may have in your home. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the bug bomb. Use a bomb on every floor of your home, and you should use multiple bug bombs if you have a larger home to help reach all of the rooms in your house. Use the pesticide bomb in crawl spaces and basements as well.

Clean Up The Exterior Of Your Home

Clean the exterior of your home to prevent these pests from coming into your home in the first place. If you have garden beds close to your home, or you have mulch surrounding the foundation of your home, you should clean up these areas and remove the mulch, which ants are attracted to. Clean up dead landscaping and remove other debris.

If you have a problem with ants in your home, you should hire an exterminator to help you kill these pests. You can use the tips and information above to help you get rid of these pests as well. If you find that you have these pests throughout your home, you more than likely have an infestation and should leave this work to a professional exterminator.
