Preventing Ant Invasions at Your Home or Business
There are many different ways an ant population can make their way into your Oklahoma home or business. Because ants are so small, they can often utilize the smallest cracks into your home to begin growing their population numbers. For this reason, following these exclusion steps is critical:
- Seal Entryways – Ants are adept at finding small entrances that give them access your home or business from cracks in windows, cracks in doors and cracks in the home’s foundation. It is important to seal any potential entryways your find with caulk or another appropriate sealant. By doing so, their chances of finding their way into your home or business is greatly minimized.
- Remove Food Sources – Ants are scavengers and the smallest crumb or drop of liquid can be a welcome find for the entire colony. To minimize the risk of these pests coming into your home or business, it is important to regularly remove food sources they may have access to. Regular cleaning and proper food storage will help discourage these pests from invading.
- Repair Leaks – Like all other pests, ants need an adequate supply of water to ensure the continued survival of their colony. To prevent their access to water, it is important to check your sinks and other appliances for any water leaks that may exist. By limiting the water access these pests have, you will be less likely to experience an invasion.
