Common Ant Problems in Surrey
Surrey homes and businesses commonly experience:
Ants in kitchens and pantries
Ant trails along baseboards and walls
Outdoor ant nests in lawns and patios
Carpenter ants damaging wooden structures
Seasonal ant swarms in spring and summer
Our team identifies the species and uses the safest, most effective treatment methods available.
Carpenter Ants
Size: 10-20mm
Color: all black, dark brown, dark red, or a combination of these.
Unique Characteristics: There are many species of carpenter ants in Canada. These Ants have a three part body which includes the head, thorax and abdomen.
Carpenter Ants establish their initial nest in decayed wood. Once established, the ants extend their tunneling into sound wood and can do a considerable amount of damage to a structure. They commonly nest in standing trees (living or dead), in stumps, or in logs on the forest floor. Since many houses are being built in forested areas, well-established, vigorous colonies are readily available in the immediate vicinity to attack these dwellings.
Pharaoh Ants
Size: around 2mm
Color: yellow or light brown
Unique Characteristics: Pharaoh ants are not very common in BC. At Ideal Pest Control, we receive very few calls about them each year. They are a species that are mainly found in warm climates, but have adapted to the climate in British Columbia. They are mainly found in hotels, grocery stores and hospitals. Although they are not harmful, Pharaoh Ants can be bothersome while also having the potential to transfer disease.
Pavement Ants
Size: 2.5 - 4mm.
Color: dark brown to blackish.
Unique Characteristics: This is the most common species of Ants found in British Columbia. They are mainly found under building foundations, sidewalks, pavements, and patios. Although they are not at all harmful, they can be quite bothersome. Pavement Ants are most active during the spring and summer as these are the warmer seasons of the year. They also cause problems in the colder months as well within the inside of the home. As they are drawn out by heat, the use of heaters in the home can be associated with ant issues in colder months.
