Inspection of trails and access points
We identify where ants are entering and where trails concentrate, including indoor routes and common exterior entry areas.
If ants are showing up indoors or you can see their trails around doors, skirting, windowsills, or kitchens, 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney can help.
Ants usually return when the source and entry points are not addressed. A focused inspection helps locate where they are coming from, then treatment can be applied where it matters.
