You're relaxing at home when suddenly, a large black ant scurries across your kitchen counter. Your heart races as you realize it's not just any ant — it's a carpenter ant. These wood-destroying pests can spell trouble for your home's structure. Don't panic! Arrow Pest Control is here to help. We're New Jersey's go-to experts for tackling carpenter ant problems, big and small.

Carpenter Ant Control — What You Need to Know

Carpenter ants are a threat to your home's structural integrity. These industrious insects burrow into wood to create their nests, potentially causing serious structural damage over time. They're drawn to moisture-damaged wood in homes, making attics, wall voids, and areas near leaky pipes prime real estate for ant colonies.

To effectively control carpenter ants, you need to identify and eliminate the entire colony, not just the worker ants you see. This often requires professional help, as carpenter ant nests can be tricky to locate. Our pest control professionals have the tools and know-how to track down these elusive colonies and eradicate them for good.

Residential Ant Control Experts

Whether it’s your home or business, an ant infestation can cause real damage. If there’s food or moisture, they’ll find it. Arrow Pest Control provides solutions for both homes and businesses in New Jersey. Our pest control professionals use proven methods to handle ant infestations and make sure that your space is safe and ant-free. From wall voids to hidden nesting sites, we know where ants like to hide and how to treat them, offering peace of mind with every visit.

We Know How to Find How and Where Carpenter Ants Are Coming From

Carpenter ants are masters of stealth, often nesting in hard-to-reach areas of your home. They commonly set up shop in wall voids, hollow doors, or even insulation. These sneaky pests can enter through the tiniest cracks in your foundation, gaps around windows and doors, or via tree branches touching your roof.

At Arrow Pest Control, we're on the trail of these elusive insects and know where they like to hide. We follow ant trails, inspect potential nesting sites, and use our years of experience to pinpoint the source of your carpenter ant problem. Our thorough inspections cover both the interior and exterior of your property, leaving no stone unturned in our quest to find the ant nest. By identifying how and where the nearest carpenter ant colony is, we can help keep those pests out of your property.

Our Different Types of Treatments for Carpenter Ants

With carpenter ant control, one size doesn't fit all. That's why Arrow Pest Control offers a range of treatment options to tackle your specific ant problem. For a more severe carpenter ant infestation, we may employ direct nest treatment, carefully applying professional-grade insecticides to the ant nest itself.

We also offer perimeter treatments to create a barrier against future ant invasions. And don't worry about those flying ants - we've got solutions for them too. Our treatments are designed to be effective yet safe for your family and pets when used as directed. DIY methods often fall short when dealing with carpenter ants because you just can't possibly know everything about them. Our professional-grade treatments and expert application make all the difference in achieving long-lasting results.

Treatment Process

A Thorough Inspection

An Arrow pest control technician will conduct a full interior and exterior carpenter ant inspection to confirm the presence of these pests, what sections of your home they are infesting, and how they’re getting in. Inside, inspection areas include wall voids and moisture prone areas which may be undetectable to you but perfect conditions for carpenter ants to thrive.

Outside your property, we’ll inspect trees and other moisture prone areas as carpenter ants are most commonly found where there is an abundance of moisture.

Exterior Treatment

Your technician will perform a full exterior treatment to the perimeter of your home and key harborage areas using materials that are highly effective in eliminating carpenter ants.

Interior Treatment (if needed)

If carpenter ants are inside your home and treatment is necessary, we’ll take care of that too.

Follow Up Carpenter Ant Control Services

Once our team has treated your home and property for carpenter ants, we will return twice for follow up visits to make sure these ants are eliminated.

One-Year Renewable Carpenter Ant Warranty

After Arrow has controlled carpenter ant activity in your home, we’ll provide you with a one year renewable carpenter ant warranty. That means our carpenter ant treatments are guaranteed for one year. Should a re-infestation of these ants occur, we’ll come back out and take care of the problem at no additional cost to you.

Every year, your carpenter ant warranty is renewable, we’ll simply come back out to inspect, treat the exterior and interior if necessary, and you’ll be covered for another year!

Prevention — The Key to Keeping ALL Ants Out for Good

When it comes to ants, prevention is worth a pound of cure. By taking proactive steps, you can make your property less attractive to carpenter ants and other ant species. This not only helps prevent future infestations but also complements professional ant treatments for long-term control.

Here are some key prevention tips:

Fix moisture issues promptly, including leaky pipes and poor drainage
Trim tree branches and shrubs away from your home's exterior
Seal cracks and gaps in your home's foundation and walls
Store firewood away from your house and elevate it off the ground
Keep food in airtight containers and clean up spills immediately
Regularly inspect your home for signs of ant activity

Ant prevention isn't a one-time task. It's an ongoing process, and by incorporating these habits into your routine, you'll significantly reduce the chances of carpenter ants and other pests making themselves at home in your space.
