A repellent spray scatters the trail and can actually cause a colony to split into satellite nests — our non-repellent bait approach is built to eliminate the whole colony instead. Species identification happens on the first visit, since the right bait for odorous house ants isn't the same formulation that works on pavement ants or fire ants.
A technician checks for carpenter ant frass and moisture damage in addition to standard trail mapping.


Our Ant Control crew is trained on species-specific colony behavior, not just surface spraying.
Ant calls get same-day scheduling in most cases, since trails often mean a colony has already found a reliable food source.
Pricing is quoted flat after inspection, covering both interior bait placement and exterior perimeter treatment.
We use non-repellent insecticide and slow-acting bait so the colony carries product back to the nest instead of scattering.
Carpenter ants excavate damp or damaged wood for nesting, so treatment includes moisture-source identification alongside colony elimination.
Odorous house ants form large, fast-moving colonies with multiple satellite nests, so bait placement targets several access points at once.
We treat expansion joints and slab edges directly, which is where pavement ant colonies typically establish.
We prioritize fire ant calls in yards with kids or pets given the sting risk from disturbed mounds.
Commercial accounts get documented service visits with bait station placement suited to kitchen and retail environments.
A perimeter barrier around the foundation reduces new trails from forming after the initial colony is addressed.

Tell our dispatcher which ant behavior you're seeing so the technician arrives with the right bait formulation.
Our mobile units stock separate bait types for carpenter, odorous house, pavement, and fire ants.
We trace the trail, identify the species, and quote a flat price covering interior and exterior treatment.
Guarantee coverage means continued trail activity after the guarantee window gets a free re-treatment.
We'd sprayed the visible trail ourselves for months with no luck. Non-repellent bait cleared the whole colony within two weeks.
The mound treatment plus yard bait meant no new mounds popped up nearby afterward.
Our restaurant kept getting ant trails near the dish station and Nex Pest Control's bait program finally stopped it for good with monitoring visits.
Pavement ants kept coming up through a crack in our patio slab every summer until the perimeter treatment finally sealed that off for good.

No matter which Albion neighborhood you're in, a technician equipped for ant-specific treatment can reach you the same day. Coverage includes single-family homes, apartment communities, and commercial kitchens across our Albion service area.

Surface spray kills visible ants but rarely reaches the actual nest, so the trail usually returns within days.
Yes — while they don't eat wood like termites, nesting in structural wood can still cause damage over time if left untreated.
Bait stations are enclosed and placed out of reach, and we'll walk you through placement locations during the visit.
Full elimination timing depends on colony size, but visible activity usually drops within the first week.
Yes, fire ant mounds get direct mound treatment plus broader yard bait to catch connected satellite colonies.
Yes, we use bait placements and monitoring schedules suited to food-service environments and health code requirements.
