Ant Control
Melbourne

Ants driving you up the wall? Get in touch with us to regain safety and comfort at your home — guaranteed results.

A Colony Problem Needs a Colony Solution

Melbourne is home to several ant species that invade homes and businesses — including Argentine ants, Black garden ants, Fire ants, and Coastal brown ants. Each species behaves differently, which is why a one-size-fits-all approach doesn't work.

The key to effective ant control is targeting the colony — not just the workers you see. Spraying visible ants only triggers the colony to split and spread. Our colony-targeting bait approach is carried back to the nest, killing the queen and collapsing the entire colony.

Note: White ants (termites) are a completely different pest requiring separate treatment. If you're unsure which ant you're dealing with, call us for an identification inspection.

Signs You Have an Ant Problem

Visible Trails

Ants moving in organised trails between food sources and their nest — common along skirtings, window frames, and kitchen benches.

Nests in Soil

Small mounds of disturbed soil in the garden, under pavers, or around the home's foundation indicating an underground colony.

Food Contamination

Finding ants in pantry items, pet food bowls, or food storage areas — a sign they've established foraging routes into your home.

Winged Ants (Alates)

Flying ants emerging from walls or the garden indicate a mature colony about to expand — act quickly before they establish new colonies.

How We Eliminate Ants

1

Identify Species

We identify the ant species and locate nest sites, foraging trails, and entry points into your property.

2

Apply Bait

Targeted bait stations and gel bait placed along foraging trails — workers carry the bait back to the queen, collapsing the colony.

3

Barrier Treatment

Residual spray applied around the perimeter, entry points, and garden beds prevents new ants from entering.

4

Nest Treatment

Where nests are accessible, direct nest injection ensures complete colony elimination with lasting results.

Ant Questions

Spraying visible ants only kills foraging workers. It can also cause the colony to "bud" — splitting into multiple new colonies as a defensive response, actually worsening the infestation. Our bait approach targets the queen, which is the only way to permanently eliminate a colony.
You'll typically see a significant reduction in ant activity within 1–2 weeks. Complete colony elimination can take 2–6 weeks depending on colony size. You may notice more ants initially as they take the bait — this is normal and a sign the treatment is working.
No — "white ants" is a common name for termites, which are a completely different species. If you suspect you have white ants, please contact us immediately for a termite inspection, as they require a completely different treatment approach.
