Why Choose Us?
Why Are These Tiny Pests Such a Big Problem?
Ants might not carry the same health risks as some other pests, but they are a definite nuisance and a sign that your property's hygiene could be compromised. Worker ants are constantly foraging for food, and if they find a reliable source within your home or business, they'll leave a pheromone trail, inviting the entire colony to join the feast. This can lead to thousands of ants trailing through your property, contaminating food preparation areas, and becoming an eyesore for you and your guests or customers. Whether it's the common black garden ant or more persistent species, professional intervention is often the best way to get rid of them for good.

Our Proven Strategy for Effective Ant Removal
At Moorlander Pest Control, we don't just spray and leave. Our approach to ant control is thorough, effective, and designed for long-term results.

01822 668338Common Ant Species in the South West – Know Your Foe
While the Black Garden Ant (Lasius niger) is the most common culprit found in homes and gardens across Plymouth and the wider South West, we're also equipped to handle other species. These may include Pharaoh ants, which are a particular challenge in commercial settings like hospitals or food production areas due to their small size and ability to spread diseases, or Ghost ants, which are tiny and translucent, making them incredibly difficult to spot. Our 20 years of experience mean we know the habits and behaviours of these different species, allowing us to implement the most effective and targeted control methods for your specific problem.
