Carpenter Ant Control

a carpenter ant that was diverted away from a home by a pest control specialistCarpenter ants are wood-destroying insects that can make you, your family, and guests feel uncomfortable due to their size. Removing carpenter ants can be difficult for homeowners, and it is best to trust a pest control technician for the removal and control of carpenter ants inside your home.

Regular Ants vs. Carpenter Ants: What Is The Difference?

Regular ants are noticeably smaller than carpenter ants. Carpenter ants also have a heart-shaped head, whereas regular ants have more of a circular head. As it pertains to behavior, carpenter ants are far more destructive and difficult to remove. Ant traps work for regular ants but do not work for carpenter ants.

As the name implies, they often build nests inside of wood. They do not consume wood as some other insects do, but they can do a fair amount of damage to the wood, leaving a material that resembles sawdust behind.

The Importance Of Carpenter Ant Control And Removal

Carpenter ants can cause a fair amount of damage to the wood inside your home, especially in areas that are less visible and may go unnoticed. If left untreated for an extended amount of time, carpenter ants can cause warping and other severe wood damage that requires extensive and costly repairs.

Our Approach To Carpenter Ant Control

The best way to deal with carpenter ants is through preventive measures. If carpenter ants enter your home, then it is important to promptly exterminate and remove them before they are able to cause significant damage to your home.

Seal-Out And Repellant

You can reduce the risk of carpenter ants infiltrating your home by sealing them out of areas where they frequent, such as around bathrooms, kitchens, and other areas where there are water sources. Carpenter ants can also enter into your home’s foundation and cause damage. Repellant sprays can also help control and prevent carpenter ants.

Chemical Treatments

It is important to leave this to a professional for optimal safety. In addition, it requires a professional and experienced technician to determine where the carpenter ants are to ensure effective, targeted results. Our team knows how to use insecticides safely and without notable risk to homeowners.

Damage Repair

Carpenter ants can chew their way through wood that is a part of your home’s foundation. After we take care of your carpenter ant problem, we can also repair wood, insulation, and other parts of your home that may have been damaged by the carpenter ants.

Very professional I called for an appointment he was here the next day with everything needed. He understood how petrified I was over the rodent issue we were hearing in our walls. He was able to find and close up any possible outside entrances and placed outside poison and baits inside with more poison. He came 3 more times for check up and addressed my concerns and knock on wood he was right nothing has returned since. His work and prices are so worth it.

I Called Corey Tuesday evening and he was here at 9:30 the next morning for a wasp problem in and out of our home. This is our second time using him as the first time was for a mice issue and after his visit, we have been mice free for well over a year now. His knowledge of these critters is amazing, knowing their detailed habits. Wishing I could give a rating over 5 Stars. Look no further for any time if removal of extermination - you will find no better person for the job.

I had a wasp nest somewhere below my deck, bothering the family in the swimming pool. No way I was attempting to find the nest myself without a bee suit and flamethrower, so I called Corey at Spartan. He went under there armed with only a flashlight, found the nest and took care of it! Not only was he prompt, fast, efficient and effective, but the guy had guts of steel. Hoping to never encounter any more killer bees, rabid raccoons, attacking ants, or any other predators, but if I do, I’m glad I know I got Corey on my side!

We had a squirrel running around the attic and walls of our new home. After calling a few pest control places in the area, we decided on Spartan Pest Control as they had the most reasonable price, and fast friendly customer service. The owner is extremely personable, polite, and thorough. He uses humane traps, and guarantees his work for 3 years. I would definitely use them again!

I cannot recommend Spartan Animal and Pest Control high enough. Cory, the owner, was very professional, articulate and extremely knowledgeable. He did a superb job. Spartan also installs chimney caps and I had my chimneys capped as well. I hope I never have a pest problem again but if I do I will call Spartan without hesitation.
