Bay of Plenty homes and commercial businesses are regularly invaded by a variety of pest ant species, which present a health risk via the transfer of various germs and bacteria. This situation presents the opportunity for potential contamination of food items and cooking utensils.

In some cases, if left untreated by suitable pest control measures, ant numbers can reach hundreds of thousands and create additional problems when nesting in walls or roof spaces to electrical wiring and equipment such as hot water services, air conditioning units, stoves and fridges, down lights etc.

Customers often tell us they have tried many baits bombs and sprays before they call us but without success. Ants can detect some products avoiding treated areas which can exacerbate the infestation spreading them over a larger area. Other products may kill to quickly not allowing the product to be transferred to the nest. We use products that the ants cannot detect and are carried back to the nest. We can identify the type of ant and use their natural behaviour to eliminate them.

Control of ants at your residential, commercial, industrial property

The main ant species we see in the Bay of Plenty are the White footed house ants, Argentine ants, Black house ants & Coastal brown ants. There are 35+ species of ant in New Zealand with a dozen or more causing pest problems. Different species require different control methods. Some ants have a single nest with a single queen, others have multiple nests with multiple queens. Feeding preferences vary between species and change seasonally. When visiting your property, we identify the species and the extent of the infestation, then we use the appropriate treatments for your situation.

We service private homes, rental, properties, commercial kitchens rest homes etc. We eradicate infestations and perform preventative and monitoring programs to integrate with food safety plans. We have treatments for all areas: kitchens, interiors of homes, ceiling cavities, exteriors of buildings and even garden areas.
