How AstraHive Pest Control gets rid of ants in Kleinburg
- Identify the ant. Tiny yellowish ants are Pharaoh ants, which must never be sprayed because spraying splits the colony.
- Bait. Granular bait or bait stations let workers carry the product back and kill the colony. Pharaoh ants get gel bait only, over 3 visits about 2 weeks apart.
- Barrier. Inside we treat baseboards, cracks and travel paths. Outside, a perimeter barrier around the foundation, doors and windows lasts about 90 days.
- Warranty: if ants come back, we come back at no extra cost.
Products are Health Canada approved and applied according to the product label, and our technicians are licensed by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP). Our ant work is backed by a 90-day warranty.

Pavement ants become a nuisance in lawns, gardens, pathways and indoors. Health Canada: ants
All pest ants use odor trails for orientation, but these trails differ from one species to another, and where the pheromones originate, their chemical makeup, and how long they last all vary from one ant species to the next. If you remove one food source, don't assume the problem is solved, the colony may simply start foraging somewhere else in the house, which can look like the ants "moved."
