Ants in your office space

February 02, 20252 min read

Did you know, a recent survey revealed that pest control experts have been called to about 80% of offices in and around Ellenbrook due to pesky ant problems?

If ants chose to make themselves at home, they can be a nuisance for business owners and their teams. Not only can they be a bit creepy for employees, but they could also deter customers.

But don’t worry! If you are diligent and think of using a commercial pest and animal control service such as Ellenbrook Best Pest Control, you can keep these little pests from becoming a large problem.

Understanding the Risks of Ant Infestations

The risks that come with ants really depend on the type of ant you’re dealing with. In Ellenbrook , some of the most common culprits are:

  • Argentine Ants

  • Bull Ants

  • Carpenter Ants (these guys can cause structural damage as they tunnel through wood)

  • Coastal Brown Ants

Ants normally follow some rather unsanitary routes before they arrive at your workplace, and that can create health risks for both employees and customers.

Why Do Offices Attract Ants?

When it comes to ants, it’s pretty simple: They’re searching for food, water and shelter. The kind of cosy conditions they thrive in are also easy to find in many buildings in Ellenbrook . They are looking for shelter from the rain, protection from predators, and always on the hunt for delicious morsels to take back to their colony.

One of the most popular misconceptions is that ant infestations only occur in dirty environments. TRUE: Even the smallest of spills, crumbs, and a dripping tap can make your office a highly tempting destination!

Tips for Keeping Ants at Bay in Your Office

Just as they say, prevention is better than cure! Now one fantastic option to stop them from getting into your office is preventing them from getting in at all.

  • Sealing off entrance points

  • Reduce water sources

  • Reduce food sources

  • Limit shelter

Ants are a hard pest however with the correct treatment along with things to avoid your office ants problem can easily be removed.

By being proactive, you can help ensure that your workspace stays ant-free and welcoming for everyone! 

I hope you find this version more inviting and friendly!
