Super Sleuth: Practical Tips for Trailing Ants Indoors

摘要

To control ants indoors, whether with crack and crevice treatment or baiting, you first need to find the ants. If you find the nest, you can treat it directly. But in many cases, you'll have to locate ant trails and aim your controls at the foraging ants. Start by talking to your customer. Where have ants been seen? When? How often? Are there any areas of the home that have had moisture problems or leaks? If calling on a residential account, ask any children in the home. They notice things (like ants) that adults may overlook. In fact, a child may take you right to the nest.
