Over 50 Years of Ant Control Experience

There are tons of different species of ants that live on Long Island. Each species brings its own challenges when treating an infestation, but with an on-staff entomologist and highly trained exterminators, that’s not a problem for A&C Pest Management! Some common species of ants on Long Island are:

Odorous House Ants

• Odorous house ants, otherwise known as sugar ants, are a growing problem in the New York area. While incredibly tiny, they can cause a big problem if left untreated in your home. These insects enter homes in search of food, preferring meats and sweets, and love to make their home inside your pantry or cupboards. 
• When they invade your home, they have a tendency to contaminate food products and can emit a strong, rotten smell when crushed. The most likely sign of a sugar ant infestation is the sight of their foraging worker ants and the occasionally winged swarmer.
• If your home has a sugar ant infestation, do not attempt to perform DIY treatments. A trained exterminator should be called in because DIY treatments can splinter the colony, creating new ones, and making the infestation harder to solve.

Pharaoh Ants

• Pharaoh ants, like odorous house ants, are also very small. But, their bodies are light yellow with red and black markings rather than being dark brown or black. Pharoah ants like to enter homes to feast on crumbs, spills, moisture, and take advantage of the protective habitat. 
• They will typically find a way into your home through torn window screens, doors that are poorly sealed, windows without weather stripping, and other entryways. 
• Just like with odorous house ants, DIY treatments can drive them further into your home, making the infestation harder to get rid of. Our exterminators are trained to help manage Pharaoh Ants and design a customized treatment plan for your needs. 

Carpenter Ants

• Carpenter ants are small and black, though some do have a reddish or yellow tint to them.
• They like to build homes in damp or decaying wood that may be around your home. 
• Some common signs of carpenter ants include sawdust piles near windows, doors, or other wood structures in your home, ants nesting in wood, and damaged wood in your home.
• If you see carpenter ants in your home, it's important to take action immediately. These pests can cause serious damage to your home if they're left unchecked.
