Does it take more than one service to get rid of ants in Arizona? π
The honest answer: Sometimes, yes! If you've noticed an influx of ants marching across your kitchen counters after our recent mid-October rains, youβre not alone. Here is why eradicating an ant infestation isn't always a one-and-done job:
Rain drives them indoors: Saturated soil floods outdoor ant nests across the Phoenix metro area, forcing colonies inside in search of dry ground and food.
Ants stockpile bait before eating: When ants gather professional bait, they donβt consume it on the spot. They carry it back to food caches within the nest to share later. Seeing ants active around bait means the process is working!
Sub-colonies (Budding): Certain Arizona species can split off and establish multiple satellite nests. If a colony feels threatened or crowded, it dividesβmeaning a follow-up visit is often vital to target every satellite nest.
