We also consider the accessibility of the affected areas and the specific products needed to handle the job safely. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

Carpenter ants don't eat wood, but they tunnel through it to build nests, which weakens the structure of your home. We locate the main colony and any satellite nests, then use specialized treatments to eliminate the queen and workers. You should call us if you see large black ants inside or notice piles of sawdust-like debris near wooden structures.

Summer heat drives pests to seek moisture and shade, often right inside your living space. From ants to stinging insects, the high activity levels can make your outdoor areas unusable and your indoors uncomfortable. Regular treatments are the most effective way to maintain control during these peak months. Call us to keep your home pest-free all summer long.
