Ants The 1 Pest Problem Across the Country

• Across the country, ants are some of the most
  difficult pests to control.
• There are few DIY solutions available that will
  actually control an infestation, and once the
  ants know youre on to them, theyll send scouts
  out to build additional colonies.
• The only real way to deal with them?
• Professional help.

Four Big Problems

• While there are thousands of species of ants
  around the world, and many in Indiana, there are
  four main types of ants that you are most likely
  to deal with in Indiana.
• Black Carpenter Ants,
• Pavement Ants,
• Pharaoh Ants,
• Citronella Ants.

Eliminating the Nests

• Nests can occur indoors or outdoors, depending on
  the type of ants youre dealing with. Carpenter
  ants nest in the wood inside your home. Pavement
  ants would be happy to nest under your floor or
  in your walls. Pharaoh ants move through the
  walls and ducts in your home. Citronella ants
  dont nest inside, but theyll come inside for
  food.

No Home Is Safe

• Even if you think youre protected, the chances
  are good that you arent. A crumb of food or a
  drop of water from a leak is enough to entice
  ants into your home.

6
Choosing the Solution

• There are plenty of ant baits and ant sprays the
  line the shelves of almost every hardware store,
  but all of them have pretty serious drawbacks.
• First, it can be difficult to tell what kind of
  ants youre dealing with.
• Second, the type of spray or bait you choose may
  not be enough to eliminate all of the ants youre
  facing.

Getting Professional Help

• Because ant problems can be so pervasive,
