Ants often enter properties in search of sweet or greasy food, creating visible trails across floors, worktops and walls. The ants you see are usually only foraging workers, while the queen and the main colony remain hidden under paving, inside cavities or beneath the building.At Apex Pest Control Kent, we provide professional ant control for homes and businesses throughout Kent. We identify the species and use a targeted approach designed to reach the nest, not simply remove the visible trail for a few days.
● Regular ant trails leading to food, water or waste areas
● Ants appearing through cracks, skirting, pipe gaps or window frames
● Small piles of soil or debris near paving and wall edges
● Flying ants emerging inside or close to the property in summer
● Repeated activity after using shop-bought powder or spray
● Tiny yellow-brown ants in heated buildings, kitchens or care environments.

Why do ants keep returning after I spray them?
Sprays may kill the worker ants you can see without affecting the queen or brood. The colony continues producing workers, so the trail returns.
What are flying ants?
Flying ants are reproductive males and queens leaving a mature nest, usually during warm summer weather. A large number emerging indoors may indicate a nest within or beneath the building
Are ants dangerous?
Common black garden ants are mainly a nuisance, but they can contaminate food. Some less common indoor species can spread bacteria and require specialist treatment.
How much does ant control cost?
The cost depends on the species, nest position and size of the affected area. Contact Apex Pest Control Kent for a free quotation
