When ants keep coming back no matter how many times you spray the trail, the nest is the real problem. Ant nest treatment goes after the colony itself rather than the workers you see on the bench. We take bookings for nest treatment across Chermside and book a nearby independent crew who looks for the nest, treats it and checks for any satellite nests close by.
Finding the nest takes some patience. The crew we book watches the direction of the trail, checks garden edges, lawn, paving joints, retaining walls, pot plants and the base of trees, and looks for loose soil, small piles of sand or ants carrying food. Some colonies sit inside wall cavities, under floors or behind skirting boards, and the crew treats these through the entry points the ants are using.
- Nests in garden beds, lawns and around tree roots
- Colonies under pavers, driveways and concrete paths
- Nests inside wall cavities, subfloors and roof edges
- Satellite nests near the main colony
- Ant nests in pot plants and raised garden beds
Yards in Chermside are often a mix of lawn, gardens and concrete, and a single colony can spread across several spots. Treating the nest area directly, along with baits the workers carry back underground, is how the whole colony is reached rather than just the ants on the surface. Nests close to the house are treated first, since those are the colonies most likely to be sending the trail inside, and the crew tells you which spots to leave undisturbed for a while.
We give you upfront pricing on the phone before the visit is booked. If you are not sure whether you have one nest or several, describe what you are seeing and the crew will check on the day. Call 07 3543 7769 to book ant nest treatment.
