Pavement Ant Control & Removal
When you spot ants inside and around your home, you may wonder what species has infested your property. Chances are they're pavement ants – one of the most common species in the US. True to its name, this species is known to burrow below and create mounts under sidewalks, driveways, concrete or asphalt slabs, patios, rocks and landscaping fixtures and around curbs. If you spot these ants around your home, it may be time for professional pavement ant control services.

Do You Need Pavement Ants Removal Services?
A typical colony features more than one queen and several workers, with the queen laying her eggs to start a new colony. The workers then raise the hatched ants – which may be moved around in the colony – until they are fully grown. If you already have a colony of pavement ants in your yard, it's not hard for these pests to access your home. Food that's left out could be an incentive for them to crawl through cracks in your foundation or around doors and windows. Once inside your home, they may start to create colonies:
- In wall voids
- Below toilets, sinks, water heaters
- Anywhere else with moisture
- Underneath insulation
- Above false ceilings
- Under floors
From here, the ants create a pathway back to the nest and will continue to return to the source. Let our pavement ant control experts help identify the infestation in a safe and timely manner. Eliminate 'Em Pest Control Services provide you with fast, professional, courteous service and licensed technicians to handle all of your summer bug extermination needs. Professional technicians are available to you 24 hours a day and 7 days a week to get rid of those pesky pavement ants causing damage to your home.
Why Should You Contact a Pavement Ants Extermination Professional?
-
Foundation Infiltration These ants nest under slabs and move through cracks to enter your living space.
-
Sand Pile Indicators Small piles of sand found along baseboards are clear signs of an active colony.
-
Large Swarms Pavement ants can swarm in the hundreds overnight, making a home feel overrun.
-
Food Contamination They are opportunistic feeders that will quickly discover and swarm pet food.
-
Underground Nests Because nests are often under concrete, professional baits are needed to reach queens.
-
Year-Round Entry In heated homes, pavement ants can remain active and forage even during winter.

I can’t say enough about Josh and the service he provided! I had been struggling with yellow jackets getting into my house for 7-8 days. After I was actually stung while sitting in my recliner in the living room, I had my window air conditioner removed, thinking they were somehow getting in through there. Unfortunately, that didn’t help. The next day, I had 4 yellow jackets on my front windows, and the following day I had 3 more. That’s when I finally gave up and researched who the best people were to call. I am SO glad I did! This company is outstanding. They answered the phone on the second ring, were extremely polite, and assured me that a technician would contact me within 15 minutes. They gave me his name, and Josh called me within 5 minutes. I opted to go with emergency service because I was afraid of getting stung again. Just arrived in under 10 minutes. It took Josh less than 5 minutes to find where they were coming from.... the swarm was at the very top of my chimney! It was a very large yellow-jacket nest, and Josh took care of it immediately. He explained that it would take a few days for all of the yellow jackets to completely die off and told me that if I was still seeing them after that, I should simply call him back. Josh was extremely polite, knowledgeable, and professional. I couldn’t have asked for better service. I am super happy that I called this company and will definitely be using them for my home from here on out. I highly recommend them to anyone dealing with a pest problem!
