Pest Control in Houston

What do you do when you have ants enter your home? Many of us have experienced this our fair share of times and immediately we grab the cleaning product that is closest to us and start cleaning, hoping that magically we will wipe away the ant trail and they will never come back again. Most often, that is not the case. In fact, they are more likely to create alternate routes to their food sources and spread out in many directions. Knowing what type of ants you are dealing with is a starting point and also what type of food source is attracting them. If bait is what you are going to try and win the battle with, you need to know if they are in search of sugars or protiens.

What Can You Expect With Ant Control
From Guard Pest Control

Guard Pest Control follows a tried-and-tested three step
process for ant control in homes and businesses we represent.
The process is as follows:

Inspect.

Our licensed and certified technicians are ready to help you get to the bottom of your ant problem. This begins with a thorough inspection of your property to determine the whole picture and exactly where the ants are coming from as well as where they are going to. This will help us to determine the best course of action to treat and what methods will be the best.

Correct.

Once the proper course of action is determined, we will notify you of any potential structural or sanitation issues that may be contributing to the ant issue. While some of these things may be very minor, some of them could also be pretty substantial. We can help put together a proposal for any repairs or cleanup projects that may be needed.

Protect.

Once our treatment is applied, it may take a couple of days to take full effect but we guarantee that you will have no ants on the interior of your home for 60 days or we will be back out to treat again. Free of charge.

Once ants get onto a property, they never stop expanding. Don’t wait: put a stop to them today with help from Guard Pest Control.

Tips You Can Use To Prevent Ants Around Your Houston Property

Although there is no surefire way to eliminate ants from ever entering your home without the use of pesticides, we have developed some best practices that you can use to reduce the risk of ants and many other common pests. Follow these reccomendations:

• Take the trash out regularly
• Keep all food and drink items stored in sealed containers, refrigerated if possible - including pet food
• Keep food prep areas clean, and sanitize them regularly
• Clean up food and beverage spills immediately as they happen
• Seal any holes in the building’s walls and siding
• Keep your pantry organized and throw out any food items that have rips or tears in them
• Don’t leave pet food and water bowls out overnight
• Keep countertops and appliances clean of any grease, crumbs, or other food debris
• Fix any leaks or moisture problems present in the building
• Sweep and vacuum floors on a regular basis

While these steps can go a long way in keeping ants from the interior of your home, there is still a chance you may get ants. When this happens, don't try and eliminate them on your own. Call for help! Guard Pest Control is always just a phone call away and we are happy to help you maintain a pest free home. We offer one-time treatments for ants but always recommend our bi-monthly preventative services so that you never have to worry about pests in your home.
