Why Ants Are More Than Just a Picnic Nuisance
While a few ants might seem harmless, a growing colony can pose several issues. They often contaminate food preparation surfaces and stored food as they forage, potentially spreading bacteria like Salmonella. Many species, particularly Pharaoh ants, can even carry pathogens and infest sterile environments, which is a major concern for businesses, especially those in food service or healthcare. Plus, the sheer volume of them trailing across your floors and walls can be incredibly distressing. Attempting to tackle a large ant problem yourself with supermarket sprays often only scatters the colony or kills a few workers, leaving the main nest intact to reproduce and return with a vengeance.

Who We Are
Spotting the Signs of an Ant Infestation in Your Property
Ants are tiny, but their presence can be quite obvious once you know what to look for. The most common sign is, of course, seeing live ants, especially in trails as they move between a food source and their nest. You might spot them in your kitchen, pantry, bathroom, or even in areas where food isn't directly present. Look out for small piles of fine sawdust-like material, which could indicate a carpenter ant nest in wooden structures. Sometimes, you might even find an entire ant nest, which often looks like a mound of soil or fine dirt, particularly in gardens, under paving slabs, or near foundations of your home. If you suspect an ant problem, it's always best to get a professional inspection.

01822 668338Our Effective Approach to Ant Eradication
At Moorlander Pest Control, we don't just spray and hope for the best. Our approach to ant control in St Austell is thorough and strategic, based on our two decades of experience. Our RSPH Level 2 qualified technicians begin with a detailed inspection of your property to accurately identify the ant species, locate their entry points, and, crucially, find the nesting sites. From there, we develop a targeted treatment plan using professional-grade insecticides and baits that are far more effective and precise than anything you can buy over the counter. These solutions are designed to be carried back to the nest, eliminating the colony at its source, including the queen. We prioritise safe application, ensuring minimal disruption to your home or business while achieving maximum results.
