Ant control in Brisbane is an important part of any integrated pest control program, as ant colonies can expand rapidly if they have a sustainable food source. Ants can also leave chemical trails leading into your home that can be followed by other insects seeking a sheltered environment such as spiders and cockroaches.
When it comes to ant control in Brisbane, one of the firsts steps in any treatment plan is to identify the species of ant. In Australia there are over 3000 species of ants, meaning that any treatment plan for ant control in Brisbane must be tailored to;
The particular species of ant
The type of property needing treatment
The degree of infestation
The individual needs of the property owner
Ants are social insects that live in a permanent nests and are considered as one of the most successful of insects. Their colony sizes vary and they mostly reside in soil, wood or among rocks. But they are more commonly found around foundations and in walls, kitchens, roof voids, lawns and gardens, wood of decaying trees and rockeries.
They have clearly defined body parts being the head, thorax and abdomen. The head carries compound eyes.
Ant control in Brisbane has always been a fairly major problem. Ants can cause damage to furnishings, curtains and carpets from the debris from their workings and nests causing staining.
They can also spoil foodstuffs by entering packaging or feeding off uncovered foods.
Externally they can cause problems by undermining concreted paved and grass areas causing sections to collapse and some species cause distress from their bites.
Ant Control in Brisbane Treatment Options:
Liquid sprays, dusts, granular baits and gels are all useful in treating problems. Monitoring and continual treatment may be an option where a major problem exists.
