As Melbourne’s leading ant and pest control provider, we take care of any pest infestation or problems affecting your home or business.
Melbourne’s warm, humid climate and leafy surroundings are an ideal breeding ground for ants and other pests. Our professionally trained ant and pest technicians provide safe and effective treatments targeting affected areas of your property.
We offer preventative ant inspections along with a selection of ant management solutions to suit your home or business.
If you find ants, call (03) 8580 7001 to speak to an expert for more information.
Ants may happily live in your garden for many years, breaking down compost and turning over the soil. But, once they start invading your house or business, that’s a different story.
Some ants may even decide to nest in your walls or your kitchen. So, when an ant trail forms, wiping them away will only ever be a short term fix. You need to call a professional to identify the ants and treat them at the source.
Whether it’s for your existing property, renovation or building a new home call (03) 8580 7001. Speak to our experts and book an ant inspection to treat them for good.
Suburbs such as Geelong and Dandenong and even businesses in Federation Square are all prone to ants. Ants are more of a nuisance than a threat. Other than getting into food, they can soften the soil in the garden around trees and your property. However, in extreme cases, they can even attack electrical wiring.
In Melbourne, we mainly treat for Black Ants and Coastal Brown Ants. These ant species form a nest in the backyard and can enter the house or office space if they can’t find water during a drought. Otherwise, they may enter the house after a lot of rain, as their nest has flooded.
The Coastal Brown Ant is common in many urban areas and searches for fat and oily foods or meat. While Black Ants prefer sweet foods such as honey or jam. Keeping food sealed in tight jars and mopping up spills are the best ways to prevent ants from becoming too settled in your home.
Why ants are a nuisance for businesses in Melbourne
We often treat office spaces, restaurants and other locations for ants in businesses, especially after a downpour. Kitchenettes and communal tea and coffee areas are prone to ant infestations.
Birthday cake crumbs, biscuits left in desk draws and food not sealed properly in kitchen cabinets all attract ants.
An ant infestation in your workplace is a nuisance for employees. It can also turn away customers and affect your brand. Don’t risk your reputation. Call (03) 8580 7001. Speak to our experts and book an ant inspection today.
Why you need to call Flick for ant problems in homes in Melbourne
Ants can be a difficult pest to eradicate, especially with over the counter chemicals. The ants entering your home are only a small proportion of the colony population. The technician will need to identify the ant species and then locate the nest, which could be close to the house or further away. The treatment also depends on the size of the colony.
A technician will treat the ants at the source of the problem, preventing the ants from returning in the future.
