How Are Ants Entering In Your Dubbo Home?

Ants inside your home can be a year-round problem. Many ant species make their nests outdoors and become a nuisance when they graze for food inside your home. Let's take a look at all the different ways that ants can get inside a home.

Cracks in walls

In most homes, there are gaps big enough for ants to crawl through around your windows, doors, and vents. Look for these gaps where the wall meets the floor and roof, around window and door frames, and near outlets, pipes, and electrical lines.

Windows

While we enjoy the windows in our house for letting in sunlight and fresh air, they may also be giving ants access to your home. Open windows and screens with holes are easy for ants to move around.

Utility Lines

With all the electricity, telephone, water, and natural gas lines, there are a lot of little holes in your house. Check where your utility lines enter your home for ant action. Gaps, where these lines connect to your home, can be used by any small pest to get inside.

Killing the ants may solve your small problem, but does not help you prevent the bigger one. Flick Pest Control In Dubbo can help you eradicate ant from your home. For more information visit https://www.flick.com.au/dubbo-pest-control/
