How do you get rid of ants?

Maine is home to several ant species that regularly invade homes and businesses. Carpenter ants are the most destructive — they tunnel through damp or decaying wood to build their nests, causing structural damage over time. Pavement ants nest in cracks in driveways and foundations and send foraging trails into kitchens. Odorous house ants are attracted to sweet foods.

Ant colonies can number in the tens of thousands. Over-the-counter sprays typically only kill the ants you can see while the colony continues to grow.

Every job starts with a thorough inspection to find the source, then a customized treatment plan. One-time treatments and ongoing preventative plans are both available.

    Devin is wonderful! Prompt and professional. While it appears there is no problem, he put out some traps to monitor the situation which gave me some peace of mind. I highly recommend Campbell's Pest Control and will always use them in the future.

Common questions

Are carpenter ants damaging my house?

They can. Carpenter ants do not eat wood — they excavate damp or decaying wood to build nests and push it out as sawdust-like frass. Over time that causes structural damage.

Why do ants keep coming back after I spray?

Over-the-counter sprays typically only kill the ants you can see while the colony keeps growing. We inspect to find the source first.

Is it carpenter ants or termites?

Carpenter ant galleries are clean and smooth, while termite damage is rough and packed with mud. If you are not sure which you are dealing with, a professional inspection can tell you.

Do I need a contract?

No. No contracts, no hidden fees, no surprise charges. You can book a one-time treatment or an ongoing maintenance plan.

Is there a free inspection?

Yes. Free inspections and estimates, with no contracts and no pressure. We explain the plan and the price before any work begins.
