Colony elimination — not just surface sprays.

Ant Control Ottawa

What you need to know

Ants are Ottawa's most common household pest. From pavement ants on kitchen floors to carpenter ants damaging structural wood in Centretown's older homes — ant infestations need colony-level treatment. Surface sprays kill visible workers but leave the queen intact. The colony rebounds within days.

Warning signs

✓Ant trails near food sources or along baseboards
✓Soil mounds near foundation or driveway cracks
✓Sawdust-like frass near wood — sign of carpenter ants
✓Wings shed near windows in spring (carpenter ant swarm)
✓Recurring activity after repeated DIY sprays

Our Process

What to expect

Species identification

Pavement, carpenter, and odorous house ants each require a different approach. Wrong treatment wastes money and time.

Gel bait placement

Targeted gel at activity points. Workers carry bait to the queen — colony collapses within 1–2 weeks.

Perimeter barrier

Exterior residual spray along foundation and all entry points prevents re-colonization.

30-day follow-up

Return visit to confirm elimination. Free re-treatment if activity persists.

Free inspection — same day available

FAQ — Ant Control Ottawa

How long does ant treatment take?+

Most infestations resolve within 1–2 weeks of gel bait placement. Visible workers disappear within days as bait reaches the queen.

Are treatments safe for my kids and pets?+

Yes. All products are Health Canada-registered. We explain exactly what was applied and when re-entry is safe — typically 1–2 hours after drying.

Why do ants keep coming back after I spray?+

Over-the-counter sprays kill surface workers but never reach the colony. Gel bait is carried back to the queen — it is the only reliable long-term method.
