Ithaca Ant Control
Effective Services Throughout Tompkins County
Ants enter your property looking for food, water, and shelter. Once they get inside, a few ants can quickly grow into a huge problem. Different species build colonies in your lawn or inside the walls, so an infestation can happen before you realize there is a problem. At Wildlife Resolutions, we offer effective services for ant control in Ithaca and surrounding areas.
If you have an ant problem, call (607) 900-4491 or contact us online. We are available 24/7 for emergencies.
Comprehensive Solutions for Every Ant Species in NY
New York is home to a wide variety of ant species. Some are merely an annoyance but others can cause more serious problems. For example, carpenter ants can destroy the structural integrity of your home as they burrow through your walls and floors, harvester ants have a painful sting that can cause allergic reactions in some people, and pharaoh ants are known to contaminate food and transmit pathogens to both pets and people.
We offer ant control solutions for the following local species, and more:
- Pavement ants
- Acrobat ants
- Carpenter ants
- Bigheaded ants
- Harvester ants
- Pharaoh ants
- Odorous house ants
- Thief ants
Our technicians start with an inspection to evaluate the problem and identify the type of ants that have invaded your property. We will advise you on the places where pests are entering and recommend a customized plan to eliminate your ant problem and help ensure they do not return.
Indoor and Outdoor Ant Prevention
Wildlife Resolutions uses a variety of high-quality, safe, and effective pest control products to eliminate specific types of pests. If you want to get rid of ants and keep them out, you will need an approach that covers indoor spaces, the perimeter of your property, and your lawn and landscaping. Ant infestations often begin with colonies on your lawn before branching into your home.
We apply water-activated pesticides around the exterior of your home to prevent ants and other outdoor pests from getting inside in the first place. Our pest control specialists will then work with you to develop a plan that is effective for the type of ants that have invaded your property.
Proactive Strategies to Maintain an Ant-Free Home
Wildlife Resolutions offers pest control services for the most common pests in our area, including ants. We use state-of-the-art treatments and products that are safe for children and pets. After our initial service, we recommend regular visits to keep pests out and protect your peace of mind.
In addition to our effective pest control services, we can advise you about ways that you can keep ants out of your house for good. Since ants are looking for moisture and food, you can discourage them by reducing food and water sources. Wipe up spills, wash dishes right away, and take the garbage out to make your home less attractive to pests.
