Dealing with Summer Ant Infestation in Vancouver
In summer, when the temperature increases, it forces ants to
move to a cooler place so they can survive hence, they enter your home. These
tiny invaders are notorious for making your summers not so enjoyable as they
roam around in search of food, water, and a cool respite. But fear not, because
we have the solution to making your humble abode completely ant free and your
summers more bearable. Brace yourself as we look into the reasons behind ant
infestation and why Advance Pest Control is the ultimate solution to tackle
these pests.
What is the reason behind Ant Infestation in summer?
Ants come after mostly sugary substances in your home. You
must have noticed that if you drop some sugar grains, after a while a swarm of
ants can be seen consuming it. Outdoor dining activities increase in summer and
hence it becomes their favorite place to go find food. Moreover, ants also go
after areas that have sufficient water because they too need it in such warm
weather. For this reason, ants can be found near areas that have abundant water
such as leaky pipes or water in the bathroom. Moreover, there are some special
ants called “Carpenter Ants”. They have nuptial flights during
summer. The male and female species mate and form new colonies, which leads to
a massive surge in the ant population.
How to Control and Prevent Ant Infestation?
The first rule to avoid pest infestation is to keep the area
clean. If your place is clean and tidy with no food particles laying around,
the ants won’t come. Wipe the surfaces and clean up spills. Moreover, you
should also look into some leakages. If you fix all the leakages, there won’t
be any water on the floors, and ants won’t come there. Keep the food in
air-tight containers so that ants cannot enter it. Moreover, you should also
keep the bushes and shrubs away from your home as ants use them as bridges to
enter your home.
