Effective commercial ant control starts with identifying the species. Some, like Pharaoh ants, respond well to toxic baits, while others require residual sprays. Locating and treating the nest directly is usually essential for lasting results. Via Trium’s professional technicians have the expertise to identify the species and apply the most suitable treatment.
Ants are social insects that live in colonies made up of workers, queens, and young. In the UK, black garden ants are the most common and often nest beneath paving slabs. Flying ants, seen during summer, are part of the colony’s reproductive cycle, with queens establishing new nests after mating. Understanding these behaviours helps ensure effective, long-term control.
