Ant removal is the main thing people call us about in Sunnybank. A trail across the kitchen bench, ants climbing out of the bathroom drain or a steady line along the skirting boards all point to a nest nearby that is sending workers inside. When you ring, we ask where the ants are, what they look like and how long it has been happening. Then we book a nearby independent crew and agree the price with you before the visit.
The crew we book starts by watching the trail. Ants tend to move in straight lines between food and home, so tracing the line usually leads toward the nest or the gap they are using. Inside, they check kitchens, bathrooms, laundries and anywhere water sits. Outside, they look at garden beds against the walls, cracked paths, weep holes, pipes and, on raised homes, the subfloor and stumps. If you have noticed sand piles, mounds or ants gathering at one crack, point them out on the day.

You may see more ants for a day or two as they gather at the baits, which means the workers are taking it back to the nest. Leave them to feed, avoid spraying and wipe benches with water rather than strong cleaners near the bait spots. The crew will tell you what to expect for your home in Sunnybank before they leave.
