Ant Control,
with a plan.
A trail across the kitchen counter is only one part of an ant problem. Identifying the ant and understanding where it travels helps determine the right response. Pest Patrol GTA assesses activity around food, moisture, and entry points before recommending treatment.
Signs it’s time to take a closer look
- Repeated trails along counters, floors, or exterior walls
- Activity around food, sinks, or damp wood
- Small piles of debris near cracks or suspected nesting areas
How we approach ant control
We look at visible trails, suspected nesting sites, and the conditions attracting ants. Treatment depends on the species and location. We also explain which cleaning and moisture-control steps can support the treatment and help avoid repeat activity.
Practical steps to help prevent a return
- Wipe up spills and store sweet or greasy foods securely.
- Address leaks and persistently damp areas.
- Keep vegetation from touching the building and monitor recurring trails.

Your questions, answered
Why does spraying visible ants not solve the problem?
Visible ants may be foraging away from a hidden colony. Treating only the ants you can see may leave the source untouched. Identification and a plan for the nesting activity are more useful than repeated surface spraying.
How much does pest control cost?
The pest, size of the property, extent of activity, and number of visits all affect the price. Tell us what you have noticed and where your property is located. We will explain the proposed service and provide a quote before treatment.
What about children and pets during treatment?
Tell your technician about children, pets, and any access concerns before the visit. Preparation and re-entry instructions depend on the treatment. Follow the specific directions you receive, including any time you need to remain out of a treated area.
