Ants Just Don’t Show Up For Picnic Eats…
As summer approaches, ant colonies expand and need additional food sources to feed their brood (young ants). They will do their best to find food and will move from the exterior to the interior areas of your home or business. Before they can find there way in, it’s best to reduce avenues of entry points into your structure, by sealing openings around pipes, door and window frames with a caulking compound for smaller openings. Cutting back foliage (tree branches, plants, and bushes) from contact with your structure. Remove yard debris to reduce nesting areas, such as plant trimmings and rubbish. Using a SYSTEMIC plant fertilizer to feed your bushes and shrubs will keep aphids from living and feeding on them. Ants protect the aphids from other insects and feed on the honeydew the aphids produce, adding a good quality cedar ground cover material around the base of the structure will serve as a deterrent from ants establishing nests in the area.
