Older homes and gardens in Southwell, in a town known for its minster and orchards, suit ants. We trace the trail and treat the nest.
A small minster town with older property and farmland around it has gardens with fruit trees, old walls and long borders. Fallen fruit and aphids on trees attract ants in late summer, and the trails then lead towards kitchens. Older houses with stone or brick floors and thick walls give them gaps to use.
We follow the trail through the garden to the nest and treat it. Clearing windfalls promptly and keeping fruit covered indoors both help. We offer appointments to suit and free advice with all treatments, so you know what to change. If the nest is in an old wall, we explain how it can be reached.
Yes, fallen fruit and aphids give ants food. Clearing windfalls and managing aphids reduce the draw. Free advice comes with every treatment, so you leave knowing what to seal, store and tidy. Call us on 0115 937 5117 and we will talk it through before anything is booked.
Late summer and early autumn are busy as fruit ripens. Activity falls as it cools, though heated houses can keep some going.
Ants follow trails to food, so crumbs, spills and open food can attract them.
