Carpenter ants hollow out damp or damaged wood rather than eating it, which means their presence often signals a moisture problem worth investigating too. Species identification happens on the first visit, since the right bait for odorous house ants isn't the same formulation that works on pavement ants or fire ants.
A technician checks for carpenter ant frass and moisture damage in addition to standard trail mapping.


Our Ant Control crew is trained on species-specific colony behavior, not just surface spraying.
We prioritize fire ant mound calls given the sting risk to kids and pets.
You'll know the full cost before any bait station or barrier spray goes down.
Our toolkit includes species-specific bait formulations, since carpenter ants and odorous house ants respond to different attractants.
Carpenter ants excavate damp or damaged wood for nesting, so treatment includes moisture-source identification alongside colony elimination.
We use non-repellent bait specifically because a startled odorous house ant colony can split and multiply the problem.
Pavement ants nest under slabs, walkways, and foundations, so exterior perimeter treatment targets those specific access points.
Fire ant mounds get direct mound treatment plus a broader yard bait application to catch satellite colonies nearby.
Commercial accounts get documented service visits with bait station placement suited to kitchen and retail environments.
A perimeter barrier around the foundation reduces new trails from forming after the initial colony is addressed.

Call +1-866-315-0243 and describe the trail location — kitchen counter, foundation, or yard mound — for the right Loganville dispatch.
Our mobile units stock separate bait types for carpenter, odorous house, pavement, and fire ants.
We trace the trail, identify the species, and quote a flat price covering interior and exterior treatment.
Guarantee coverage means continued trail activity after the guarantee window gets a free re-treatment.
Carpenter ants turned out to be nesting in a water-damaged window sill we didn't know about — the technician caught it during inspection.
The mound treatment plus yard bait meant no new mounds popped up nearby afterward.
Having a documented ant program helped us pass our last health inspection without issue.
Pavement ants kept coming up through a crack in our patio slab every summer until the perimeter treatment finally sealed that off for good.

Yes, we use bait placements and monitoring schedules suited to food-service environments and health code requirements.
