A few things ants are looking for

Why ants enter your home

Small problems.
Bigger-picture solutions.

Food sources

Crumbs, pet food, and other easy meals.

Water

Leaky pipes, irrigation, and damp spaces.

Our climate

Small ant. Big picture.

Our focus: Argentine ant control

A familiar neighbor. A persistent problem.

Argentine ants can form extensive, connected colonies and long foraging trails. Around San Diego homes, the problem often reaches beyond the ants you can see.

Our approach considers the species, the surrounding habitat, and the conditions supporting activity—so the plan addresses the bigger picture.
