Spotting Ants? It’s Time for Action

Have you spotted tiny, uninvited guests marching through your home? Ants are experts at staying under the radar, but they leave subtle signs of their presence. Watch out for small piles of soil or sand, often near cracks or baseboards, which could indicate nesting activity. Trails of ants are another obvious clue, as these hardworking insects create scent trails to guide others to food sources. You might also notice food crumbs vanishing faster than usual or small holes chewed in packaging. Early identification is key to stopping an infestation before it grows out of control.

The Dangers of Ant Infestations

Don’t be fooled by their size—ants can cause bigger problems than you might think. Some species, like carpenter ants, can damage the wooden structures of your home, compromising its integrity over time. Other types, such as fire ants, pose physical risks with painful bites or stings. Beyond structural and physical harm, ants are notorious for contaminating food and spreading bacteria as they scurry across surfaces. Ignoring an ant problem can quickly lead to a larger infestation, making it essential to address the issue as soon as signs appear.

Options for Every Home

When it comes to tackling ants, acting quickly and choosing the right method can save you time, money, and frustration. DIY solutions like bait traps and insecticide sprays may provide short-term relief, but they often fail to eliminate the colony at its source. For lasting results, professional pest control services are your best bet. At Prompt Action Pest Control, our experts use proven techniques to identify entry points, locate nests, and eliminate infestations effectively. Whether it’s sealing cracks or applying safe, targeted treatments, we ensure your home becomes ant-free.

Brant is one of the best out there! He has successfully rodent-proofed two of our homes and after years there has been no reoccurrence. He also has done a great job with getting rid of a yellow jacket nest and Asian beetle attacks in the fall. Definitely get this guy if you can!

Jason was the expert that arrived and did an EXCELLENT job! I was very happy with the attention to detail and with the way he listened to my concerns. The application was actually more than I expected and that will make anyone happy! The final cost was exactly as quoted when I made the initial contact.
I would definitely recommend and would use this company again in a heartbeat!

We’ve worked with Prompt Action Pest Control for many years. They have serviced our home and our cabin so well. We can always count on them to take care of any issues. We recently had an uptick in mouse activity at our house. Dillon was so thorough in finding the source of the problem, doing what needed to be done to resolve it, and was super friendly as well.

I had a mice problem and reached out to Prompt Action Pest Control. Dillon came to handle the situation, and I couldn’t be more impressed. He was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to explain every step of the process. He quickly identified the vulnerable areas in my home and assured me that the issue would be resolved. Professional and efficient service—highly recommend!

We recently moved to a home that had a previous history of mice, bats, squirrels and ants. Brant came out the first week we moved in and did a thorough inspection to make sure the pests were gone. He was punctual, courteous, very knowledgeable, and took the time to educate us on behaviors of the pests and how best to look for future evidence. We have scheduled this business to come for routine inspections to ensure the pests stay out. Very pleased customers!
