Ant Control
Identify the ant, trace activity and treat the source instead of repeatedly wiping away trails.
Know the signs
Understanding Your Pest Problem
Ant trails often return because visible workers are only part of a larger colony. Food, moisture and sheltered nesting sites can keep activity going even after a surface spray appears to work.
Species and nesting location influence the best approach. Traffic Pest Solutions evaluates the pattern and uses a strategy suited to what is found.
- Organized trails near food or water
- Ants emerging from trim or wall gaps
- Small piles of debris near openings
- Winged ants indoors
- Recurring activity after cleaning

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do ants return after I spray them?
A spray may remove visible workers without affecting the colony. Some products can also disrupt trails without resolving the source.
Are winged ants termites?
Not necessarily. Ants and termites both produce winged reproductive forms. Body shape, antennae and wings help distinguish them.
Where are ants nesting?
They may nest outdoors, in wood, beneath slabs or in wall voids. Trails and moisture conditions help guide the inspection.
