Insect Control for Columbus Homes and Businesses

Ants

Ant infestations are one of the most frequent pest problems in Columbus homes, especially during warmer months. These tiny pests can enter through cracks and crevices, searching for food and water sources throughout your kitchen, pantry, and basement.

Here are the different types of ants that you may encounter in your home and we also treat:

Carpenter ants are commonly found in wood structures and can cause significant damage if not dealt with promptly. They create tunnels and galleries within the wood, weakening its structure. Signs of a carpenter ant infestation include sawdust-like material near wooden structures, rustling sounds in walls or ceilings, and small holes on the surface of the wood. If you spot any of these signs in your home, our team can assess the damage and provide targeted treatment before it gets worse.

Pavement ants are small, dark brown ants that enter homes through cracks and crevices in the foundation. They are attracted to sugary foods and often make their way into kitchens and pantries. They are most active during the summer months when foraging for food. If pavement ants are making their way into your kitchen or pantry, contact our team for fast and effective ant removal.

Field ants are common outdoor ants that become a problem when their colonies grow too large. Typically found in gardens, lawns, and fields, they build mounds in the soil and can enter homes through cracks in the foundation or gaps around windows and doors. If you notice a trail of ants or see them clustered around food sources, contact our team for professional ant removal.

Wasps

Wasps are common pests that can cause harm to both humans and pets. They deliver a painful sting and can trigger allergic reactions in some individuals. Yellowjackets, hornets, and paper wasps are the most common types found in Columbus, Ohio. They usually build their nests in trees, under eaves, and around entryways.

When a wasp nest is found on your property, fast and safe removal is the best course of action. Our technicians safely remove wasp nests and treat the surrounding area to prevent the colony from returning. Attempting to handle a wasp problem on your own can be dangerous, so trust our team to get it done safely and effectively.

Cockroaches

Cockroaches are a common pest in Columbus homes and businesses, typically found in kitchens, bathrooms, and other areas where food and moisture are present. Beyond being unpleasant to encounter, cockroaches carry diseases and can trigger allergies and asthma in household members.

Signs of cockroach infestation include droppings, a musty odor, and shed skin. If you suspect a cockroach problem, act quickly. Our team uses safe and effective treatments that target the source of the infestation, eliminating cockroaches, and preventing them from returning.

Bed Bugs
