While there are several types of large ants in Michigan, the most commonly seen indoors is the Carpenter Ant. These ants don’t actually eat wood (like termites do), they chew and remove the wood to make tunnels that they live in, destroying the woods integrity. In a Carpenter Ant nest there are several different sized ants ranging from 1/4 inch to 1 inch long. While they may look very different (some are fairly small and some surprisingly large with wings), they are all Carpenter Ants. When they aren’t chewing on your house they are busy looking for food inside and outside. Community Pest Solutions starts indoor treatment with noninvasive gel baits that the ants will eat, take back and distribute throughout their colony. We pair indoor baiting with a thorough exterior treatment that the ants will also take back to their colony. We guarantee our Carpenter Ant treatments for the remaining calendar year!

There are several types of small ants in Michigan but the Pavement ant is the most common. Also known as Slab Ants or Sugar Ants, these pests commonly live under concrete slab foundations, porches and inside wall voids. Pavement ants are a common pest all year and they are often determined to invade your kitchen or bathroom. Community Pest Solutions starts indoor treatment with noninvasive gel baits that the ants will eat, take back and distribute throughout their colony. We pair baiting with a thorough exterior perimeter treatment that works the same way. We guarantee our Pavement Ant treatments for the remaining calendar year!
