A trail of ants across the kitchen bench or along a skirting board is usually the first sign of a nest somewhere close by, whether that is under a garden bed, inside a wall cavity or beneath a concrete path around the property. In Bulimba, ants often move indoors looking for food and moisture once the weather warms up, which is why the warmer months bring the most calls. Several different ant types turn up across the area, from small black ants in the kitchen to larger nests out in the garden.
When you call about ant control, we ask where the trail is coming from and where it seems to be heading, since that helps the local crew work out roughly where the nest sits before they arrive. Spraying the visible trail alone rarely solves the problem for long, because the colony behind it keeps sending workers out to look for food, and a new trail can appear somewhere else within days.
Bulimba gardens with mulched beds hard against the house, paved paths and retaining walls all give ants places to nest close to the home, and the crew we book checks these spots as part of the job rather than treating the kitchen in isolation. Units with small courtyards near the shops tend to see ants moving in from garden beds and shared bin areas.
