Top Signs You Need Ant Control in Farmington 

Ant trails in your kitchen or bathrooms

These trails form when ants release a pheromone scent that guides other ants to follow the same route, creating a steady stream of activity.

ANT MOUNDS NEAR PATIOS OR FOUNDATION

Ants can easily access and contaminate food sources, posing health risks by spreading bacteria.

INFESTATION GROWTH

Ant colonies can grow rapidly, and without control, a small issue can escalate into a major infestation, making them harder to eliminate.

COST EFFICIENCY

Addressing an ant problem early reduces the potential for expensive repairs or more intensive pest control measures down the road.

frequently asked questions about ants in Farmington, MI

Got a question? We’re here to help.

  • What’s the best way to prevent ants in Farmington homes?

    Seal cracks, reduce moisture, store food properly, and schedule professional barrier treatments with Downriver Pest Control.

  • What should I do if I find ants in my Farmington home?

    Contact a professional pest control service like Downriver Pest Control. While store-bought ant sprays may kill some ants, they rarely eliminate the colony.

  • How do you treat for ants?

    We use a combination of baits and residual treatments to target the entire colony, not just the ants you see. This provides long-term control.

  • How long does it take to eliminate an ant infestation?

    The length of time varies depending on the size of the infestation and the type of ant. Most infestations are controlled within 1-2 weeks.

  • Are your ant control treatments safe for children and pets?

    Yes, our treatments are applied with safety in mind. We use EPA-approved products that are safe when used as directed.

  • How much does ant control cost in Farmington?

    The cost of ant control depends on the infestation's size, type of ant, and treatment required. Contacting us for a quote is the best way to determine pricing.

  • Why do I keep seeing ants even after treatment?

    You may still see some ant activity as bait treatments draw ants out before eliminating the colony. This is a normal part of the process.

  • Can ants cause structural damage to my Farmington home?

    Yes—carpenter ants can weaken structural wood over time, especially in attics, wall voids, and decks.

  • How do I know if I have ants or termites?

    Ants have elbowed antennae and narrow waists. Termites have straight antennae and a thicker waist. Our experts provide accurate ID during inspections.

  • How soon should I call an ant exterminator?

    You should call as soon as you notice frequent ant activity, even if it seems minor. Early treatment prevents large infestations and potential damage.

  • Do you offer ant control for businesses in Farmington?

    Yes, we work with local restaurants, healthcare providers, apartment complexes, and retail spaces across Farmington and Farmington Hills.
