At Pest Assassins, our technicians use the most advanced products and treatment methods to get rid of ants and prevent them from coming back.

Ants are one of the most common invaders of homes in Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Some ants invade kitchens and will attack any food or water that has been found. Other ants, like carpenter ants live in trees and wood in and around a structure. Wood damage to the structure of your home from carpenter ants can be severe and an expensive repair!

Our Ant Control Treatment Process


Ant control begins with a thorough inspection of your property to identify nesting sites, satellite areas and favorable conditions causing their infestation. In the last few years advances in pest control technology including ant treatments have led to better bait products as well as undetectable liquid products.


These newer and more efficient treatments allow ants to introduce these insecticides to other colony members by normal contact and food exchange, thus controlling the entire population. 

Ant Prevention Tips

Ant control is a fairly complicated process. Pest Assassins can assist you with proper ant management and recommend following basic ant prevention tips.


You can also reduce ant activity by:


1. Keeping food debris controlled in key areas.

2. Fixing moisture issues or water damage.

3. Removing standing water in sinks & pet bowls.

4. Eliminate entry points with exclusion materials.

5. Keep vegetation from contacting your property.
