Are you dealing with an ant infestation in your home? Look no further! Our team of highly trained Ransford technicians are here to help. We have over 129 years of experience in providing top-notch ant control service.
- Assess The Situation: When you call us, we will work closely with you to assess the situation and determine if there is indeed an ant issue. Our specialists will then provide you with a free detailed quote over the phone.
- Detailed Inspection: Once you have requested our services, we will send a highly-trained technician to your location to perform a thorough inspection, during which we will look for signs of ants inside your home and for ants entering from the exterior.
- Open Communication: After inspecting, our technician will discuss treatment options with you, ensuring that you are fully informed throughout the process.
- Targeting The Source: Unlike "Contact Kill" sprays, our products are non-repellant, meaning that ants will unknowingly carry it back to the nest, providing lasting results.
- Getting Rid of Ants: After treatment, you will start to see a decline in the number of ants within two weeks, with no more ants after six weeks. While we understand that waiting can be frustrating, allowing the material to reach the nest through the colony is essential for effective elimination.

Carpenter Ant Control
In addition to common types of house ants, we also treat carpenter ants. Carpenter ants are notorious for their ability to cause significant structural damage to homes and buildings. Here's how:
- Wood Excavation: Unlike termites that eat wood, carpenter ants tunnel through it to build their nests. As they excavate galleries and tunnels, they weaken the structural integrity of wooden components such as beams, joists, and support timbers.
- Moisture Concerns: Carpenter ants are often attracted to damp or water-damaged wood. They prefer moist environments for nesting, and their activity can exacerbate existing moisture issues, leading to further deterioration of wood.
- Long-term Impact: While the damage caused by carpenter ants may not be as rapid or extensive as that caused by termites, their continuous tunneling and nesting activities can accumulate over time, eventually leading to significant structural problems if left unchecked.
- Costly Repairs: Repairing the structural damage caused by carpenter ants can be a costly and disruptive process. It often involves replacing damaged wood, treating affected areas to prevent future infestations, and addressing any underlying moisture issues that may have contributed to the problem.
