Providing Expert Ant Control
in Michigan

As an extremely pervasive and persistent species, ants are a massive headache for homeowners and business owners alike. Their presence makes a room feel unclean and at their worst, they can swarm and secrete harmful venom in their bite, or damage your building’s structure by invading the walls.

Without action, the ants will continue to lay eggs on your property in a cycle that will, in some cases, eventually lead to irreversible structural problems. Each species of ants has different infestation techniques, which is why you’ll benefit from the experience and varying treatment methods of professional insect control technicians. To stop an ant infestation in its tracks, call Creature Control for fast, reliable treatment.

Our Stance Against the Ants

Some of the most common ant species are carpenter ants, slab ants, thief ants, acrobatic ants, odorous ants, and pharaoh ants. There is no standard way to treat all ants. Successful ant treatment programs will vary depending on the type of ant and the location of the infestation. Commercially sold ant traps that claim to treat any ant problem universally usually don’t work. Individual ant traps and bait stations may be used in minor situations, but they are seldomly strong enough to take care of a serious infestation.

Creature Control makes use of a variety of methods, including habitat modification, perimeter pesticide applications, locating and removing the nest, ant baits, and structural modifications, as the situation may warrant.

Our Treatment Tactics For Ants

Habitat Modification

Habitat modification is a method of changing the home and the area around the home by sealing off exits/entrances, cutting off the food source, and identifying then eliminating other elements that attract ants.

Nest Seek and Destroy

Finding the root of the source and eradicating it can often be the best solution for getting rid of ants. Our pest control technicians will try to locate the ant colony itself, and treat it directly to eradicate the threat to your home or business.

Perimeter Sprays

In this instance, our ant exterminator will spray a pesticide around the building perimeter to prevent ants from entering your home or business. We apply our ant sprays with targeted precision for safety and efficacy.

Ant Baits

Ant baits are often made out of substances that attract worker ants. These bait stations are filled with pesticides, which the worker ants will carry back with them to the nest, spreading poison throughout the entire colony.

Structural Alterations

Some species, like carpenter ants, can do structural damage to the home. Infestations within the home usually require professional pest control measures with several treatments from experienced ant exterminators.
