Ants: Small but Persistent

Written By Chrissy S

What they do: Ants can contaminate food and some species, like carpenter ants, can damage wood.

Common types:

  • Sugar ants (nuisance indoors)

  • Carpenter ants (can damage structures)

  • Fire ants (aggressive and sting)

Signs of Infestation:

  • Trails of ants to and from food sources

  • Small dirt piles or wood shavings

  • Nests in walls, under stones, or in decaying wood

Prevention Tips:

  • Wipe down counters and sweep floors regularly

  • Store food in airtight containers

  • Trim branches and shrubs away from your home

  • Seal entry points around windows, doors, and foundations

Sherrill’s Solution:
We identify the species, locate their nests, and deliver treatments that stop ants at the source.
