Ants and mice are moving inside and wildlife may be looking for potential harbourage areas. Spiders are constructing egg sacs and mosquito activity is increasing. House fly activity can be expected.

There are many species of ants in Canada and several species live in Richmond Hill. Some of these crawling insects are nuisances. Some of them can be destructive and a few may even be considered dangerous.

Outside, homeowners often see Pavement ants on sidewalks and foundations. When their food becomes scarce, these pests come indoors. They often make nests under baseboards and inside of wall voids.

In the winter, Pavement ants often make their nests near the furnace or some other heat source. They often follow pipes or utility lines to move throughout the building.

Carpenter ants also come into buildings for food and water. These large ants prefer to make nests in areas where wood has bee damaged by moisture. The ant workers excavate galleries in damp or decaying wood.

Carpenter ants often make their nests in eaves, attics, and inside of walls. They can sometimes cause serious damage to the home before they are discovered.

Fire ants make their nests outdoors and they do not commonly invade homes. Residents of Richmond Hill should be very cautious when they are outdoors to avoid fire ant nests. The fire ant workers are very aggressive in defending the nest against intruders. Unsuspecting people and pets can suddenly find themselves covered in stinging ants.
