Pantry Cleanout – You Take Care of the Inside, We’ll Take Care of the Outside

Why are ants in your house? Chances are, they found crumbs lying around, or they simply smelled food nearby. Dartmouth ant control will help keep ants at bay

Finding ants in the house is an experience every human throughout human history has likely had to deal with. From neanderthals in their primitive abodes to our modern, amenity-rich homes, ants have always been able to find and exploit the very smallest of gaps in our defenses, and they will take full advantage. Once an ant discovers a resource-rich area in your home, they will return to their colony bearing a message like “Eureka, I’ve found food!” Depending on how near the colony is to your home, hordes of ants will appear in a matter of minutes to hours to utilize your home as their new staging base for their mission to find and contaminate your food. What makes an ant problem so persistent and difficult to eliminate is that ants create a scent trail that tells all other ants that, if you follow the trail, you will find food at the end. So, even if you find a way to remove all the ants from your home, ants will certainly return if their scent trail remains intact. Plus, their colony is still nearby, so there is no guarantee they won’t return in the near future organically.

Fortunately, there are a few things you can do that will reduce the likelihood of a future ant issue in your home, and cleanliness plays a big part. If you aren’t paying attention, it’s easy to miss crumbs here and there on the floor, an especially aromatic trashcan, or fruit that is a little past its prime sitting on the counter. Ants are incredibly sensitive to smells, especially sources of sugar like fruit, so it’s worth considering putting fruits and other sweets in the fridge or their own designated containers. Being tidy will often make ants stay away, but there are inevitable circumstances where ants return, regardless.
