Ants are one of the most common calls we take from across Gold Coast, usually a steady line marching across a kitchen bench or along a skirting board towards a gap near a door or window. Warm, humid weather tends to bring them out in bigger numbers, and once a trail gets going it can keep running for weeks if nothing is done about it. Coastal humidity through summer and the odd downpour can push whole colonies indoors looking for dry ground.
An ant visit looks at where the trail is coming from and, where possible, the nest itself, which is often outside in garden beds, under paving or along a fence line. The crew we book will treat both the trail and the likely nest site rather than just the section you can see indoors.
- Kitchen and pantry trails along benches and skirting boards.
- Outdoor nests in garden beds, paving joints and lawn edges.
- Entry points around doors, windows and pipe gaps.
- Bathroom and laundry trails near damp areas.
- A check of balconies and courtyards for outdoor nests in units.
Gold Coast gardens, courtyards and paved areas give ants plenty of places to nest close to the house, so an outdoor check is usually part of the visit even if the trail you called about is indoors. Dealing with the nest as well as the trail is what keeps ants from simply coming back through a different gap a week later.
