About Ants
Ants are social insects that can establish large colonies quickly. Carpenter ants damage wood structures, while odorous house ants contaminate food. Natural pest control professionals use exclusion, food-source removal, and botanical barrier treatments to eliminate ant colonies without harsh chemicals.
