Trails on the counter, flying ants in spring, sawdust by the window. We find the colony and stop it.
Ant control is treatment that kills the colony, not just the ants you see. In St. Louis that means identifying the species first, then pairing a non-repellent barrier outside with baits inside, so foragers carry the treatment back to the nest. Zero Pest covers ants, including carpenter ants, on our quarterly Home Shield plan across St. Louis, West County and St. Charles County.
The species decides the treatment. That is why we identify first.
Small, dark, and smell like rotten coconut when crushed. They split into new colonies when sprayed.
Little dirt piles in pavement and patio cracks, then trails inside in spring.
Big and black. They tunnel through moist, damaged wood and leave sawdust piles.
Tiny, shiny and fast. They trail from the lawn into kitchens and bathrooms.
Flying ants or termites? Ants have pinched waists and elbowed antennae. Termites have straight bodies. Send us a photo and we will tell you.
We find the trails, the entry points and the species, because each one needs a different plan.
A non-repellent treatment 5 feet out around the foundation, plus granules in the soil where ants start.
Baits where they trail indoors, so workers carry it back and the colony collapses.
We look for the nest and the moisture problem feeding it, and tell you what to fix.
Every 90 days the barrier is rebuilt. Ants show up between visits? So do we, free.
Where you live changes which ants you get.
Wildwood, Ballwin, Chesterfield and Eureka homes near trees see the most carpenter ants.
Brick homes and older walls give odorous house ants plenty of places to nest.
Slabs, patios and fresh landscaping bring pavement ant trails in spring.
No separate ant charge. Carpenter ants included.
Exact price depends on your home's size. What Home Shield covers
Real Google reviews, labeled with the reviewer's city.
“We saw one ant in our home and we knew we couldn't handle another year of bait and traps on the window sills. Alex came out to spray and was very kind & professional.”
