Ants Treatment
Ant infestations can be overwhelming at times. Ants are increasingly becoming one of the most invasive insects on the planet, crawling about your kitchen and can potentially drive you absolutely nuts. When within your corridors, ants are capable of wreaking havoc. Known to adapt, travel in trails, and build colonies, the ant is considered one of the most successful insects due to their social nature. Ant colonies (or ant mounts), include one or more queens, workers, eggs, larvae, and pupae. Due to their active searches for food or shelter, ants will always be around. Defend your home with our professional ant control products from our list of pest control supplies. Pest Mall provides all the necessary ant control products and the expertise you need to permanently get rid of ants.
How To Get Rid of Ants
All ants reside in colonies. The ants you notice foraging throughout your garden or kitchen hallway are the worker ants. It is their main priority to lay down tracks and trails that lead to a food source for the rest of their colony by any means necessary. Ants typically invade homes for a food source. Like any enemy, you must be well informed of ants and how they behave before you attack. Just spraying them with a regular ant spray will only temporarily cut off their trail. Eventually, they will find another course and continue their food search throughout your home. Pest Mall employees take pride in studying the intricacies of quite a few pests that enter the home. When it comes to domestic species of ants, we are well prepared to help with the process of extermination for our Pest Mall patrons.

Q. Ant problem in Tampa, FL yard
Hi, I have a question regarding controlling an ant problem I have in my Tampa, FL yard. I have been applying liquid Talstar for about 8 years to my St. Augustine grass yard to control chinch bugs. I use an Ortho hose end sprayer to apply about 3-4oz of Talstar to about 2000 sq ft of yard, and then about 3-4 ft up the side of the house, as well as in a lot of shrubs and bushes in my small yard. I apply it every 2-3 months on average, more in the summer, less in the winter. Talstar has worked great for the chinch bugs, no yard damage going on 8 yrs now. But it doesn't seem to work as well on the ant problem I have. I have very small, orange colored ants all throughout the yard. Looking at pictures on the internet, I think they are pharaoh ants, but I am not positive. They move very rapidly, but not like the unpredictable motion of \"crazy ants\". There are no mounds anywhere, they can be found just about anywhere in the yard. They are definitely worse in the summer than any other time of the year. I almost never see them indoors. For the last several years, it's been hit or miss with controlling these ants with Talstar applications. I end up applying more Talstar in the summer in my attempt at knocking out the ants. I've found that these ants can often return within a week or 2 of applying the Talstar. Do you have a recommendation on how to control these ants? Would your recommended insecticide also be appropriate for chinch bug control? Or should I alternate applications to control both? I hate to go away from the Talstar but the ants can make the yard almost unusable for my young children, as there are no mounds for them to avoid. These ants seem scattered everywhere. Any help you could provide would be appreciated. Also, the hose end sprayer is some what of a nuisance to use. Do you recommend a good backpack type sprayer I could use for the Talstar and/or the pest control product you think would help with the ants? I've seen some of the backpack sprayers costing almost $100, do I need to spend that amount to get a quality product? Thank you,
A. Thank you for contacting us with your questions and concerns. Because ants are social insects always in search for food, bait granulars would be the best alternative for contact kill insecticides.
Advance 375A granular would be a good product to use for ants.
We also have a back pack sprayer under $100 on our website. Chapin 4 Gallon Back Pack SprayerWas this helpful?

Q. Moisture Ants
Hi, I am plagued with Ants that are destroying my shrubs. These ants do not come out of the ground but make their nests under shrubs & bushes. They make a hill inside the Shrub or Bush and I have some hills that are Knee High now. When you try to destroy their hill - you see NOTHING. One of the bushes they had a nest in that was over a foot high - we cut down and started digging under the bush to find out what was causing the problem. We only started finding them after we pulled the roots of the bush out. We had to dig down around at least 8" before we found our first ants. They are a reddish brown ant - all uniform in size. After a little research on the internet - I found out what they were and a photo of them. Beings they do not come to the surfact to eat - spraying on the surface will not get to them, nor will powder or granuals I don't believe. Do you have anything you recommend that can reach down to them? According to my research - it is Very Hard to Locate a Nest of them. Thank You
A. We recommend using Termidor SC or Phantom SC to treat the soil around the nest. Both Termidor and Phantom are liquid concentrate products that you dilute with water. They are very effective on ants as well as termites. If you pour it into the soil and nest, the liquid will seep below the surface

Q. Will ant granules prevent tiny ants from coming indoors?
Every spring after it rains we have an infestation of tiny ants. They seem to like soap and sweets. Can I use ant granules outside to prevent them from coming indoors? Terro baits usually work after I notice the problem, but I would like to eliminate the problem before it happens.
A. Bait granules work the best if you apply it directly in their normal path of travel or directly on their mound. You can create a barrier with liquid insecticide on the outside of your home in bands. The bands extend up 4 ft. up the structure from the base and 4 ft. out from the base of the structure. Regular granular insecticide can be used as a broadcast treatment on the entire lawn. If you have any questions about ant products, feel free to give us a call at 1-800-788-4142 or email us at info@pestmall.com.

A. Thank you for contacting us. For an indoor ant problem, we recommend using the Alpine Ant Gel Bait. Because ants are social insects, they will take the bait back to their colony, getting rid of the source of the problem.
