An ant infestation can be a nuisance in your home and can be very difficult to thoroughly remove. In order to be sure that the infestation is properly removed from your home, you are going to need a Columbia pest control company that has extensive experience with insect behavior in South Carolina. Ledford's Termite and Pest Control Inc., established in 1975, has served Columbia's pest control needs since 2004. We have proudly utilized our pest control expertise to help the citizens of Columbia keep their homes and buildings safe from insect pests.
Ants use pheromones to create pathways to lead other ants inside of your home and to a food source. The common household ant is more attracted to sugary foods, rather than greasy or starchy foods. Oftentimes, they are drawn to certain areas of the home, like underneath stoves or refrigerators, inside pantries or other areas where leftover food particles go unnoticed. They are a "social" insect and live in colonies that can contain tens of thousands of ants at a time. They can live in soil, in timber, in between walls or inside roof voids and although they don't really cause structural damage to your home, it is still important to have them removed as soon as you notice an infestation.
Ledford's Termite and Pest Control Inc. can exterminate your ant problem and restore the integrity of your home. We can eliminate entire colonies so that your home is safe from ants. If you notice an ant infestation, instead of picking up a can of bug spray (which will only eliminate visible ants and won't kill the ants that are back at the colony), pick up the phone and call the Columbia pest control company that can help you get rid of them; call Ledford's Termite and Pest Control Inc. today!
