Warm weather is here and ants are busy! You are likely seeing ant hills outside your home and you may be seeing ants inside your home as well. What can you do about it? We have a few suggestions for you!
When thinking about how to prevent ants, consider the following tips:
- Inspect the exterior of your home for gaps and cracks, and seal any that you find to help prevent easy access for ants
- Keep food in sealed containers to avoid attracting hungry ants
- Clean the interior of your home often, especially floors, countertops, and anywhere that crumbs and spills may occur
- Take the trash out often and make sure trash cans have lids
- Consider a preventative exterior treatment around your home that helps stop ants from coming inside
