Little black ants


Summer will officially be here in a few days. But it's heating up fast. A Seattle family was looking forward to throwing the first barbecue of the season for family and friends. The family event included a lot of preparation not to mention cooking. The weather, in Seattle, is  perfect for outdoor fun. If this is indicative of what Summer is going to be it's perfect. Plenty BBQ’S and picnics are the ticket. But all the fun can be ruined by the Little Black Ants. The armies have arrived with a vengeance. The pesky pests invaded this family's home and outdoor areas. The homeowner said nothing is going to stop the good times. There was no for trying do it yourself methods to get rid of the little Black Ants. Professional pest control was needed and and was a job for AMPM Exterminators.
Uninvited guests land in Queen Anne:


Picnic tables are always full of delicious food and drink. A very welcoming sight for the little Black Ants. The pests instinctively gravitate towards the food. A helpful hint is to place all of the picnic table legs  into a half cup of water. The ants will fall into the water and that's it for the pesky pests. How to get rid of the little black ants is to call in a professional pest eliminator.That is exactly what the Queen Anne homeowner did. AMPM Exterminators is the pest control service chosen to get rid of the little Black Ant problem.


Homeowner identified the type of ant infestation:

The tiny black insects are also known as Sugar ants that create a lot of chaos in the home and backyards. It is important to be able to properly identify the pests. Mainly because  there are many different types of Ant species. More importantly there are specific treatments used by pest control technicians to get rid of the ant infestation. This is crucial information for when and if the time comes to hire a professional ant exterminator. This picnic has been invaded by little Black Ants and it hasn't even begun. The annual picnic is quickly approaching and the homeowner is highly stressed. AMPM Exterminators booked the appointment and confirmed it was a little Black Ant infestation from photos the homeowner sent via email.

Keeping Little Black Ants at bay:


Armies of little Black Ants have ways to infiltrate the home. Any home or buildings with moisture problems are ant magnets. Gutters and downspouts need to be kept clean. Piles  of dirt are ideal nesting areas for the little Black Ants. Standing water around the perimeter of the home are ideal spots and very inviting for the little ants. The ants love rainy weather and where better than Seattle. Check for plumbing and structure leaks. All holes, cracks and crevices in the structure have to be sealed to keep the ants out. With the picnic just days away the Queen Anne  homeowner was happy to make the choice to call AMPM Exterminators. The ant pest eliminator advised that it was feasible to send a technician out immediately. Upon arrival an inspection was number one on the technician’s list. The specific service plan was discussed and it was time to get to work. The little Black ants were everywhere. Once the service was provided it was strongly recommended to get a recurring service to spray the exterior along the foundation.  A huge helpful hint provided was to keep plants and shrubs under control. Also the main thing to know about the service is that the Ant bait will be carried back to the nests where it is shared to exterminate the colonies. Again it is wise to maintain the perimeter of the structure with a recurring service to prevent new Black Ant infestation. AMPM Exterminators is a professional and experienced company that will treat the structures for infestation and recommend follow up visits for  preventative treatments. Do it yourself methods aren't very effective and definitely not for an infestation of this magnitude.
