Ant Control Pittsburgh

We start with a top-to-bottom inspection. Inside, we check kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and utility spaces for trails, moisture, and gaps around plumbing and wiring. Outside, we track ants along foundations, mulch beds, and hardscape cracks to locate nests and entry points.

Species matter, and in Pittsburgh, the usual suspects include:

• Odorous house ants: sugar lovers that give off a musty smell when crushed

• Pavement ants: nest in masonry, driveway and sidewalk joints, and along the foundation

• Pharaoh ants: tricky splitters that require precise baiting over sprays

• Carpenter ants: large ants that tunnel through damp or damaged wood

After identification, your technician maps out a step-by-step plan for ant control:

• Targeted baiting with species-specific formulations that reach the heart of the colony

• Precision applications to entry points, wall voids, and nest sites to minimise drift and mess

• Exterior perimeter treatment to build a protective barrier around the structure

• Exclusion and habitat fixes—seal gaps, trim branches, improve drainage

• Follow-up visits to confirm colony collapse and adjust where needed

We use low-odor products and strategic placements, focusing on what works for families, pets, and everyday life when used as directed.
