Ant Control - Boca Raton

Located in Palm Beach County, Boca Raton is known for its mix of urban living and beautiful natural landscapes. It offers a variety of attractions and activities, including beaches, golf courses, and upscale shopping and dining. The city’s downtown hub, Mizner Park, is a bustling center for shopping and entertainment, boasting an amphitheater, cinemas, and tons of shopping and dining options. Residents and visitors can enjoy the beautiful beaches including South Beach Park and Red Reef Park. 

Unfortunately, pests love vacationing in Florida too due to our year-round warm and humid weather. Ants are a common nuisance, especially Carpenter ants and Fire ants. Older homes like you might find in the Old Floresta neighborhood are also at risk for ants. Older homes are more likely to have poorly sealed areas or cracked foundations, providing easy entry points for ants. Older and deteriorating wood can also attract Carpenter ants

Nozzle Nolen has been providing high-quality ant pest control treatments for residents and business owners in Boca Raton for over 70 years. The best way to protect your home from damage and food contamination is through prevention, so don’t wait until an infestation gets out of hand! By the time you see one ant, you can bet there are already thousands hidden somewhere in your house. Be proactive by scheduling regular pest inspections with a professional like Nozzle Nolen. 

Our Boca raton 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.
