Ants
Ants enter homes and businesses through mini cracks, following each other by scent. Once they enter they then settle and nest, often going unnoticed. This allows for them to create major problems to the infrastructure of one’s home or business.
Their entrance way is not limited through the front door, if there are any small holes within a building, ants are provided an entry way. Among many types of ants, the black carpenter ant, can be just as damaging to wood as termites, so it is important not to ignore and let these minuscule insects nester into your place of being.
Ants are attracted to all types of foods especially sugar, so ensuring that your food is properly put away and that cooking areas are properly cleaned, and to be careful for those lingering crumbs on the floor will lessen the chance of attracting ants.
