Ants are a common annoyance pest in the United Kingdom. While they are helpful to the ecosystem in the garden, when they are inside properties in large numbers they could be problematic. Ants do not generally spread diseases, but they will eat or take back to their nest whatever food they can find. They can contaminate food, and it is not advisable to eat food that ants may have touched or been near. Some species of ants in the United Kingdom can sting, and are dangerous if a nest is disturbed.
There are a selection of different ant treatments that vary from precautionary measures to full scale nest eradication. For most precautionary situations where ants are simply entering the building seeking for food sources, a spray with insecticide on the afflicted areas will be enough to deter ants. If the problem is prolonged, bait traps can be laid in areas where ants are frequently travelling. This can draw in the ants and prevent them from travelling further into the building.
For much more serious ant infestations, a specialist pest control company should be hired to study the location and give you advice on the most effective way to treat the infestation. Typically the simplest way to control an ant infestation is to remove the nest. This can be done using insecticide powder that is applied both to the nest and in the nearby area to ensure any ants that go back to the nest are affected.
