Edmonton Ant Treatment
Professional Pest Management is a trusted provider of comprehensive and professional services for effectively treating and eliminating ants in a variety of structures, both residential and commercial.
Ants are fascinating outdoors, but inside your home they become relentless thieves. A single scout tags your pantry with invisible pheromones and, within hours, you wake up to a living conveyor belt of six-legged intruders marching crumbs back to their nest. Because an ant colony functions like a single super-organism, wiping out the visible workers rarely solves the problem. Effective ant control requires a strategic blend of identification, targeted treatment, and diligent prevention.

Identify Type of Ants, Apply Focused Treatment, and Block Access.
First, you need to know what type of ant you're dealing with. Carpenter ants create tunnels in wood, pharaoh ants form many new nests, pavement ants are found in cracks in driveways, and odorous house ants smell like bad coconut when squished. Because different ants react differently to treatments, a general spray won't work. Our experts can identify small differences in their appearance, trails, and nesting to use the right baits and barriers that the ants won't avoid.
The second step involves focused treatment. First, we treat the outside area where the ant colony is located. We use liquid termiticides that ants can't detect, forming a barrier. The ants walk through it, unknowingly carry the poison back to the colony, and spread it through food sharing. This silently destroys the colony from within. Inside, we use protein or carbohydrate gel baits suited to what ants prefer to eat at that time of year. Ants change their diets as the colony grows; they prefer carbs in spring for energy and proteins in midsummer for larvae. By changing the bait types, we prevent ants from becoming resistant and ensure they keep eating the bait.
Step three involves closing up any openings to keep pests out. The most effective pest control won't last if there are still ways for them to get in. We seal gaps around windows, put in new door sweeps if the old ones are ripped, cut back plants from the house by a foot and a half, and fix any water problems that can damage wood or make it easier for pests to travel. In kitchens, keeping things like sugar, cereal, and pet food in sealed containers stops pests from finding food. Outside, keeping firewood off the ground keeps carpenter ants from getting in. Stopping pests before they get in might not be exciting, but it costs less than having to call us back again and again.
Edmonton's Trusted Ant Exterminators
Why pick a pro instead of doing it yourself? Sprays from stores usually push ants away, which makes the ant group break up and move further into walls where you can't get to them. We use a pest control method that uses less spray but works better. All our sprays are okayed by Health Canada and used safely around kids and animals. We also email you clear directions for after the treatment on the same day. Usually, houses only need two visits a year, and if you're not happy, we'll come back and spray again for free within two months.
A single friendly visit and a well-planned solution will get rid of ants for good. For businesses, we can provide pest control after closing, digital records for health inspections, and employee training to keep cooking areas clean and ready for inspection. If needed, our experts will come in plain vehicles to protect your business image, leaving only clean air, safe areas, and a signed report saying there are no ants.
