Ants come in many different species and can be found in a number of different areas of your home. Some are attracted to the kitchen area while others build their nests inside the walls. They can also be found outside building nests in the yard or under your patio furniture. The types of ants we have here in Toronto include carpenter ants, pharaoh ants, worker ants, and the queens, of course.

If you have ants infesting your property, the best way to get rid of them is to act swiftly. If you’re wondering why they’ve given your home a second look, it might have something to do with the resources that are readily available to them. Ants are looking for three main things: food, water, and shelter. Unfortunately, our homes provide the essentials that make ant life pretty good.

Luckily, although there are many types of ants, there are only a few extermination methods that are used. In general, a spray treatment for a carpenter ant infestation will be the most effective. Other options such as low doses of "ant poison" are available as well that kill the queens.

Pharaoh ants are one of the most common house-invading species in North America. These tiny, light-colored ants live in warm, humid places such as kitchens and bathrooms. Unlike carpenter ants, which destroy wood as they tunnel through the framework of your home, pharaoh ants essentially live indoors, nesting near sources of water.

Carpenter ants are large ants indigenous to many forested parts of the world. They build nests inside wood consisting of galleries chewed out with their mandibles, preferably in dead, damp wood. The first chambers in a carpenter ant colony contain eggs and young larvae, while the later chambers contain soldier ants and mature larvae. The species commonly infest human dwellings seeking water or shelter (e.g., under potted plants)

Carpenter ants are some of the largest ants in the country. Although black carpenter ant workers may be relatively smaller than other species of ant, their colonies can still be very large, making most do-it-yourself pest control remedies ineffective. If you see a little black ant, then you might be seeing one of the ant workers.

Just like us, carpenter ants need food and water! Most ants live to bring good back to their queens, one crumb at a time. To avoid attracting ants to your kitchen, make sure there is no moist wood (cabinets, drawers, and door frames) where they could be living. Signs of damaged wood would be a good place to check for large nests or late colonies of ants. Ants return again and again at any smell of human food. To avoid home ants and any ant activity in general, make sure to keep open food in tightly sealed containers. This is a great rule to follow to avoid cockroaches as well.
