Ant Control - lake worth

Nestled in Palm Beach County within the Miami metropolitan area, Lake Worth, Florida, presents a diverse array of attractions and activities for both locals and tourists. The city boasts picturesque coastal beaches and the Lake Worth Lagoon, a 20-mile-long waterway  with a diverse range of marine life and opportunities for kayaking, canoeing, fishing, birdwatching, or just relaxing on a boat. Lake Worth’s lively downtown district features a pier, a casino complex, an assortment of shops and boutiques, art galleries, and a wide selection of dining establishments, ensuring that there’s something for everyone to enjoy in this charming Florida destination.

Lake Worth neighborhoods like Historic Old Lucerne, Lake Osborne Estates, and College Park are susceptible to ant infestations due to South Florida’s warm and humid climate. In addition, older homes like you might find in Historic Old Lucerne, Parrot Cove, or the Downtown area are also at risk for ants. Older homes are more likely to have poorly sealed areas or cracked foundations which provides easy entry points for ants. Older and deteriorating wood can also attract carpenter ants

To keep your home or business protected from ants, make sure to invest in regular pest control inspections from a professional like Nozzle Nolen!

Our lake worth ant control services

Depending on the ant species, extent of the infestation, and other factors, we’ll use a combination of methods to get rid of ants at the source and prevent them from coming back. Our ant control treatments include:

 

INSECTICIDES 

  • Today’s materials have the ability to be target-specific as they can be transferred from insect to insect when they return to the colony. When an ant trail is observed, the material can be applied to the trail for them to pick up or directly to the insects as they forage.

CHEMICAL BARRIERS

  • Long residual materials are placed around all doors, windows, vents, holes, cracks, and along the foundations of the structure, which isolates the home, creating a protective barrier, and preventing ants and other insects from entering the structure.

SEALING 

  • During our inspection we may observe ants entering through a crack or hole in the structure or around windows. We will use caulk to exclude them and keep future insects from using these points to enter. We will also make recommendations to the homeowner if many holes or cracks are found so they can make arrangements for all to be sealed, adding to that impenetrable control barrier. 

BATING 

  • Among the many tools we use to control ants, baits are some of the most effective methods of control. While being highly effective, they are also the lowest-risk materials we use. Once the worker ants find the bait they diligently bring it back to the colony, sharing it with all nestmates, including the queens, to achieve the highest possible reduction of the colony population.
