How to spot them

Signs of a ant problem

  • Steady trails of ants between a food source and an entry point
  • Small piles of fine soil or debris by paths, patios and air bricks
  • Winged 'flying ants' indoors, a sign of an established mature nest
  • Activity concentrated around kitchens, bins and sweet residues
Why it matters

The risks of leaving ants untreated

  • Contaminate food and preparation surfaces as they forage
  • Large nests can undermine paving and patios over time
  • Persistent infestations are difficult to clear with shop-bought sprays
Our approach

How we treat ants in Derby

01

Identify the species and trace trails back to the nest

02

Apply professional gel baits and residual treatments the colony carries inside

03

Target nest sites in cavities, under paving and around foundations

04

Advise on the proofing and hygiene that keeps them out

Keep them away

Preventing ants coming back

  • Wipe up sugary spills and store sweet foods sealed
  • Seal gaps around doors, skirting and air bricks
  • Keep bins clean and lidded, away from entry points

When you will see them

Ant activity surges in late spring and through summer, with flying-ant swarms typically on warm, humid days in July and August.
