Long Term Extermination of Ants by Professional Pest Control Services
Though ants are considered harmless pests to humans, infestation of ant is a big problem. It is very difficult to find out from where they come and to get rid of the ants completely is also a challenging task. Ants enter the houses in search of food and there are diverse types of ants like sugar ants, moisture ants, carpenter ants and pavement ants. When there is infestation of ants in a large scale, the house owner may call the professional pest control service to get rid of them. The ant control experts will locate the colony of the ants by laying bait traps. When the poisoned food is carried by the ants back to the colony they find out the same. Once the colony is found out, the service team will apply chemical spray to get rid of the ants completely. To prevent recurrence of the problem, the house owners can ask for follow-up visits. The liquid ant killer is not very costly and extermination of ants by a Portland pest control service will not be very expensive. DIY methods to get rid of ants are not so effective to produce long-term results and when there is large scale infestation, the DIY methods for extermination cannot make the desired result.
Transfer insecticide
The professional pest control services will apply a transfer insecticide for destroying the colony of sugar ants. They are very effective because every ant that comes into contact with the transfer insecticide spreads the same to other ants that come into contact with it. The transfer insecticide can be applied only by the professional pest control services since the public cannot buy the same. When an ant colony in a structure is to be eliminated, application of transfer insecticide by the pest control service is the best solution. The professional exterminators also ensure that the ants do not enter the house again.
Reliable service
The ant control personnel of the professional pest control service are highly skilled, well-trained and experienced. These professionals are licensed as well as certified and they attend periodic training programs to update their knowledge. While targeting the treatment on the ant species the service personnel ensure the safety of the residents as well as pets. The professional experts know the habits of diverse types of ants and accordingly they give the treatment. On receiving the call from the client, the technicians conduct a free inspection of the house and based on the type as well as severity of the infestation they suggest the treatment plans. Regular ant control inspection by a pest control company will ensure that the problem does not occur again.
