Pavement ants

Pavement antsPavement ants are a nuisance when they enter your home. Also known as sugar ants, these pests enter homes in search of food and they like to live beneath areas such as cellar slabs, driveways, brick or stone patios, sidewalks, as well as in and under organic hiding places, such as logs and in mulch. If your home has pavement ants, call in the extermination professionals at Ford's Hometown Services (FHS).

Pavement ant nests can be easily identified – they tend to push up little mounds of sand and soil as they excavate their tunnels. A typical colony has between 3,000 and 5,000 ants, while a large colony could harbor as many as several tens of thousands of pavement ants.

If you suspect you have pavement ants and need removal services, keep in mind that these colonies can be very difficult to locate and oftentimes even harder to eliminate. For you do-it-yourselfers, be careful as over-the-counter products sometimes scatter a single colony into many colonies. Call in the professionals at FHS. Located in Worcester, we have been serving Central Mass for decades and offer:

  • Licensed professionals: At FHS, we staff licensed, experienced technicians. We can quickly determine if pavement ant colonies are present and can eliminate your problem quickly and efficiently.
  • Deep expertise: Our team has decades of experience dealing with pests. These ants are sometimes mistaken for termites, but they do look different as termites have a uniformly thicker body and are much larger. Also, termites have straight beaded antennae with two body segments while pavement ants have antennae that are “elbowed” and have three body segments. If you think you have ants or any other pest, our team can help identify your issue and create a plan of attack.
  • Top-notch service: FHS customers love our focus on customer service. When you call, you’ll talk to a real person on the phone who can help answer all of your questions. Customers also love our deals. Right now when you call about pavement ant removal for your home, you can get $60 off with our Ultimate Pest Plan.
