Our natural-first approach to ants in the Great North Woods

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 hunting camps and customize every treatment to your property's specific needs.

Ants questions from Great North Woods 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.

Absolutely. We use botanical baits and food-grade diatomaceous earth that are effective against ants but safe around children and pets when applied correctly by our technicians.

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.

Yes, our quarterly service plans maintain protective barriers and catch new activity early. Regular inspections identify conditions that attract ants before infestations develop.
