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.

Foundation Infiltration These ants nest under slabs and move through cracks to enter your living space.
