Ants in Thorneywood homes, whether terrace or later build, follow trails from nests in the ground. We trace and treat, with free advice with all treatments.
Thorney Wood sits close to Sneinton and has Victorian terraces next to later housing. In older streets the nest is often in a yard or a boundary wall. In later houses with lawns, nests may sit under turf or at the edge of a patio, and workers enter around patio doors or utility room walls. The material you see on a worktop is a small part of the colony.
The useful question is where the ants are going rather than where they are. We watch the line, find the nest, and treat it. We also check the kitchen routine: sweet spills, jam jars with sticky lids and pet food left down are common attractions. Free advice comes with all treatments, and we explain what to expect afterwards.
It depends on the size and position of the nest. Activity often tails off over days, but a large colony can take longer.
Shop-bought products can scatter ants or only kill the workers you see. If ants keep returning, an inspection can find the nest and the right way to reach it.
Ants follow trails to food, so crumbs, spills and open food can attract them.
