Our natural-first approach to ants in the Central Massachusetts
Our natural-first approach uses botanical bait stations that target entire colonies. We apply diatomaceous earth barriers at entry points and use essential oil repellents around foundations. Colony elimination typically takes 2-3 weeks with our IPM methods. We identify conditions common to historic village homes and customize every treatment to your property's specific needs.

Ants questions from Central Massachusetts residents
Ant colonies can contain thousands of individuals and multiple queens. Without eliminating the colony, scouts will return. Our baiting approach ensures the queen is eliminated for lasting control.

We offer same-day and next-day service throughout our service area. Most ant treatments can be completed in a single visit, though carpenter ant infestations may require follow-up.
