Older brick buildings in Old Basford give ants warm, sheltered nest sites. We follow the trail, treat the source and charge no call-out fee.
Old Basford has Victorian terraces alongside former industrial premises, and ants use both. In houses, the nest is typically under a yard slab or behind a loose rendered wall. In older units and converted works, ants can run through expansion gaps, loading doors and warm service areas. Spotting piles of fine soil at paving joints is often the first sign of a nest.
We establish the species, find the entry point and treat the nest and the paths between nest and building. In a commercial setting we also look at waste storage and staff kitchens, which are frequent attractions. There are no call-out charges, and our commercial division offers free surveys with a free written inspection report.
They can. Warm areas, gaps in brickwork and nearby food sources suit some species. We trace the trail and check both inside and outside before choosing treatment.
Small heaps of fine soil between slabs often mean ants digging a nest underneath. It is a good clue to point out to us, as it helps locate the colony.
Ants follow trails to food, so crumbs, spills and open food can attract them.
