Ant Control

Whether you have little, annoying, sweet ants that usually congregate in kitchens or bathrooms, or carpenter ants that can be destructive to a structure, Paffy’s Pest Control can eliminate these pests.

Sweet ants, the little brown ants, are not destructive, but they can be a nuisance, as can the pavement ant.

Paffy’s Pest Control

Paffy’s uses a granular spray to bait the ants. Once the spray dries, the ants are attracted to the bait and take it back to their colony. When it gets to the colony, the queen eats it and dies. Without the queen, the colony cannot reproduce and the whole colony is destroyed. Paffy’s takes care of the problem at the root. The same principle applies for the sweet ant colonies.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Q: How long does it take for the ants to take the product back to the nest and have the full effect?

    Each case is different depending on how far away the colony is from your home or structure. Usually, it takes between five and 10 days. Often, when the ants can feel their demise, they will go a little crazy as kind of a last-ditch effort.

  • Q: Is the product safe for small children or pets?

    Yes, all of Paffy’s technicians are state certified and each product we use is EPA and FDA approved for quality assurance. Once each product has dried it is safe to the touch. The product our technicians use for ant control takes about one hour to dry.

  • Q: Does one treatment usually do the trick?

    Yes, we get very few callbacks for ants. However, our Carpenter Ant package is based on square footage of the property because we treat around the perimeter of your home and we give you a three-month guarantee. While there is a true sentiment of the phrase “we will come out until the problem is fixed,” we definitely will, but Paffy’s treats it correctly the first time.
