Surrounded by farmland, homes in East Stoke see ants from fields, hedges and yards. We follow the trail and treat the nest.
A small village near the A46 with farmland all around has open ground on every side. Ants nest in hedge banks, field margins and farm tracks, and can range into gardens and outbuildings. Barns, stables and garages are warm and hold feed or stored items that attract foragers. A trail into the house may be an extension of one in the yard.
We check outbuildings and yards as well as the house, since the nest may be in a bank or a wall. After treatment, we recommend sealed storage for pet and animal feed. A free pest prevention survey comes with treatments, and we explain gaps and habits in simple terms.
It can. Spilled or open feed gives ants a food source. Sealed containers help. Nests are often a metre or more from the wall, so the visible line is a clue rather than the whole story. Ants are more active in warm weather, and colonies grow through the summer before slowing in the cold.
Yes. We check and treat outbuildings if ants are active there, then advise on keeping food stored securely. If the ants vanish for a day or two and then return, the nest is usually still active nearby. We explain what to expect when we assess it.
Ants follow trails to food, so crumbs, spills and open food can attract them.

In a village surrounded by farmland, a wasp nest might sit in a hedge bank, an outbuilding or the soffit. Whether it needs treatment depends on where it is.
