Ant control: identification and the affected materials

What needs assessing

Note the trail, suspected entrance and rooms affected. Explain whether activity is occasional, seasonal or persistent and what products have been used.

Agreeing the work

Review the identified ant activity, likely access routes and the proposed treatment or prevention measures.

Details for your enquiry

Describe where trails begin and end, rooms affected, food areas nearby and any products used so far.

Ant control: questions and answers

Should the visible trail be the only part inspected?

The trail is useful evidence, but the assessment should also consider entry points and the source of activity. Tell the technician where ants have been seen over time so the plan addresses more than one isolated sighting.

What should I have ready for ant control?

Describe where trails begin and end, rooms affected, food areas nearby and any products used so far.

What affects the quotation for ant control?

Identification, extent of indoor activity and the access needed for the agreed approach determine the ant-control scope. Confirm what the inspection, treatment and any follow-up include before booking.
