Pests We Treat Photo Album: Pool Timer Full of Ants in Point Pleasant, NJ
Didn't See Any Ants Until...
Although the customer was not having any issues in the interior of the home, he directed us to an area by the pool filter where he was seeing a lot of ant activity. We didn't see any ants until we began spraying around the timer control box with a residual aerosol - then they came out in droves!
They Came Pouring Out
Some were carrying ant larvae away from the treatment area. We then treated the supporting post, the area around the post, and the exterior of the home with a liquid residual.
Granular Bait
We then applied a granular bait to a broader area around the pool filter for any foraging ants.
How These Treatments Work
The ants will come in contact with either of these applications, bring them back to their nest, and transfer the treatments to each other, either through grooming or feeding one another.
That's it for the Ants
Shortly after, the entire ant colony is eliminated.
