Ants can invade your pantry, infiltrate your food, and contaminate everything in sight before you even know what’s happening. If you suddenly have an ant issue in your office, you are most likely desperate for a solution. Take the advice below to return your office or home to the ant-free environment it used to be before the problem gets out of control.
First of all, you will need to block every area of access the ants could possibly find. This includes doors windows and if there are cracks on the walls.
Lay out a line of baby powder, salt, or chalk in front of doors and windows where you suspect they may be finding entry. Ants will do everything in their power to avoid these substances, including staying out of your office or home.
Kill off the ants that you see
This can be done by:
- Dip a sponge in hot, soapy water, and simply swipe up the trail.
- Spray the trail with a cleaner or bleach solution, and then simply clean them up.
- If you can find the nest, you can also spray that with the same solution.
Use of bait
This is to entice them and then kill off the ants in your home. You can create your own bait, using borax or boric acid powder, or you can purchase a pre-made poison from the store.
If you have an extensive infestation, you may want to consider using a professional fumigation pest control services. You can find our company offices in Nairobi, Kisumu, Eldoret, Kakamega Kenya. Our fumigators, also known as foggers, supposedly kill off an ant infestation for six to eight months, so it is certainly a longer lasting approach.
Precaution
If you do decide to go down this path, be aware that you will likely need to be out of your office or home for several hours after the fogger has been set off.
