Professional Ant Control For Your Commercial Property

When the weather gets warmer, you can usually expect to see a tiny invader making an appearance in, and around, your business; ants. Whether you are dealing with carpenter ants, pavement ants, or any other species of ant, the health and safety hazards associated with these little pests can put your business at risk of failing audits or even shutting down. This is why it is important to have a professional pest control company help you get rid of ants in your business. 

At Orkin Canada, our team of commercial ant control experts are properly equipped to deal with any ant issue. We provide professional ant treatments from coast to coast – so whether your business is in Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto, St. John’s or any other Canadian city you can rest easy knowing that Orkin Canada is there to help.     

How Orkin Canada Manages Your Commercial Ant Problem

Liquid Treatments 

Orkin Canada’s liquid treatments effectively take care of your ant issue; whether it is the ants you see or the ones you don’t see. Often used as a barrier treatment, this residual application acts like a shield to prevent ants from entering an area.

Bait Treatments

Bait treatments are a great way to both monitor, as well as, treat a particular ant issue.  While these treatments can be used to understand the magnitude of an ant infestation, bait treatments can also act as an additional delivery option to take pre-treated bait back to the colony. Using professionally formulated bait options, your Orkin Canada technician will place the bait in areas where you’re seeing the heaviest ant activity. Depending upon the size of the infestation, a combination of the different treatments may need to be used.

Dust Treatments

Orkin Canada’s ant dust treatments involve using a powdered formulation designed to effectively deal with your business’ ant issue. As the dust acts as a barrier that the ants must crawl through, direct contact with an ant’s antennae and legs is guaranteed. There is also a high probability that upon returning to the nest the ant will spread the dust throughout the rest of the colony, providing a more effective treatment that will rid your business of ants.

Granular Treatments

Granular treatments provide a fast-acting and effective perimeter defense against various species of ants. The treatment is not only effective on contact, but also provides residual properties that ensure your commercial property is protected long term. 

Common Ant Species In Canada

The most common ant species you may find on your commercial property include:

Common Treatment Areas

Because ants are social creatures that tend to travel along “structural edges”, your Orkin Canada technician will target common areas in, and around, your commercial property where ant activity has been most frequent. These areas can include: 

  • Sidewalks 
  • Patios 
  • Fences 
  • Curbs 
  • Landscape edges 
  • Expansion joints 
  • Doors & windows
