To find an ant colony, place food such as jelly, honey, sugar or bacon where you have seen ants, and watch the ants that show up for dinner. They will typically create and follow the same route to and from their nest. Ants usually live in wood or soil outside the house, and only march into your house to gather food, particularly during the spring and summer. On the other hand, ants may live inside the house. It's important to track down the ant colonies to identify the species and choose the right control. If you can find the ant colony early, you can typically prevent ants from causing serious damage to the home or commercial business buildings. Several types of ants may build nests in or around foundation walls. The most common are known as larger yellow ants, which rarely cause damage or eat human food. Pyrethrins and other spray insecticides are effective for getting rid of most foundation infestations. Tiny grease ants may seem to appear out of nowhere and sneak into food containers. Rather, they are appearing out of tiny gaps and cavities in the kitchen, including spaces behind kitchen cabinets. Such nests can be difficult to find, but baits may work. Also, wipe up all greasy stains and try to eliminate or seal all attractive food sources, including oils, meats and cheeses. Ants find a variety of unusual homes inside your home. Take care to identify the species and find its hiding places and use the right controls to get rid of them. Of course, it's best to keep ants from getting into the house in the first place. Sealing all holes and gaps around the house, including the spaces where wires and pipes go in; and repairing all leaks to avoid any moisture buildup or rotting wood.
