Professional Ant Control That Gets Results
Ants don’t show up alone. Once you see one crawling across the counter, hundreds are nearby, working to feed the nest. Most store-bought sprays only kill the ones you can see. Bugs Are Gone eliminates ants at the colony level with targeted Ant Treatment that gets to the core.
Common Ants We Deal With Daily
Each species behaves differently. Identifying the type is critical. Our treatment plans depend on how the ants live, what they eat, and where they nest.
- Black House Ants: Found in kitchens, bathrooms, and under appliances. Often form trails to food or moisture.
- Coastal Brown Ants: Nest in walls, pavers, and gardens. Known for aggressive colony expansion.
- Sugar Ants: Attracted to sweet foods. Often enter through tiny cracks.
- Bull Ants: Large and aggressive. Nest outdoors in soil. Known to bite.
- Green Ants: Build visible nests in trees and plants. Threaten outdoor play and garden zones.
Knowing the difference saves time, product, and effort. We use that information to build a treatment strategy that eliminates the root cause.
Don’t Follow the Trail, End It
Surface sprays only wipe out workers. They don’t touch the queen. If she lives, the colony survives. Worse, killing only the visible ants often triggers colony splitting, making the infestation harder to control.
The real fix is to target their food chain. We use products that the ants carry back to the nest, spreading it to the queen and larvae. That’s how we shut them down completely.
Spot the Early Signs Before It Gets Worse
Ants work around the clock. Most people miss the signs until they’re sharing the kitchen with them. Report the problem when you notice:
- Ant trails near benchtops, bins, or windows
- Fine dirt or sand piles in corners or skirting boards
- Ants around electrical outlets, tiles, or cracks
- Nests near pavers, trees, or garden beds
- Frequent activity during mornings or evenings
Every delay gives the colony more time to spread indoors or underground. We recommend immediate treatment at the first sign of consistent movement.
How Our Ant Control Process Works
We don’t apply one solution to every property. Ant control demands a focused, layered approach that targets both indoor and outdoor zones.
Initial Inspection and Activity Check
We assess trail patterns, entry points, and nesting zones. We search the full perimeter, inside walls, under floors, and around trees or garden structures. We determine the species and select the proper treatment.
Baiting the Colony
We place non-repellent gel bait directly into trails and entry points. Worker ants carry it back to the queen and other members of the colony. This method eliminates the entire structure without forcing ants to scatter and rebuild.
Bait is placed with precision, out of reach for pets or children, and does not stain.
Residual Barrier Spray
We apply long-lasting insecticides around the exterior perimeter, cracks, paths, fence lines, and baseboards. This creates a barrier that blocks future invasions. The spray stays effective across weather changes and foot traffic.
Dusting and Nest Targeting
For visible outdoor nests or deep indoor colonies, we use insecticidal dust. This targets areas where liquid sprays and bait can’t reach. Common dust zones include pavers, roof voids, and garden beds.
Garden and Outdoor Treatment (if applicable)
Ants love warm soil, plant roots, and mulched areas. We apply low-toxicity treatments around lawns, trees, and patio spaces to reduce outdoor colonies that may migrate inside.
Suitable for All Property Types
We treat homes, units, townhouses, offices, restaurants, clinics, and schools. We also offer ant control for:
- Outdoor entertaining areas
- Rental properties with recurring infestations
- Childcare centers where ant safety is a concern
- Kitchens and food preparation areas
- Shared buildings with connected walls or utilities
No structure is too large or too detailed. We adapt the approach based on risk level, layout, and previous treatment history.
Safe for Everyday Use
Our treatments are safe for pets and families once dry. We use registered products and place bait where it won’t be touched. No strong chemical smells. No stains. No residue on counters or floors.
We provide a detailed care guide after treatment, including re-entry time and post-treatment cleaning tips.
What to Avoid During an Infestation
Do not block trails or wipe down entry points before our technician arrives. Avoid using aerosol sprays. These scatter the ants and make the infestation harder to treat.
Do not apply store-bought repellent on top of professional bait. It neutralizes the effect and wastes the treatment. Let the bait do the work.
