Why Choose Us for Carpenter Ant Control in Bellmore
Carpenter ants are a structural concern because they excavate wood to build galleries for nesting — and the nest inside your walls is almost never visible from the outside. Our protocol starts with a careful inspection to trace foraging workers back to the main nest location using moisture detection and probing techniques, since carpenter ants consistently nest in wet or decayed wood. We treat the nest directly with residual dust injected into wall voids and galleries, apply targeted perimeter spray to foraging routes and entry points, and advise on eliminating the moisture source that originally attracted the colony. Our 30-day guarantee covers re-treatment, and we recommend addressing any moisture issues to prevent re-infestation.
