They chew their way through floors, walls, and furniture which leads to the eventual breakdown of the entire house.

I Have Ants!

In the pictures, a Green Giant Pest Control technician is installing an ant bait station at our office in Fleetwood Pennsylvania. These bait stations do a great job of controlling ants before they get inside the building. The bait compartment is locked with a child resistant lid and the ants access the bait through holes in the stake. The bait stays dry even if the area is flooded with a few inches of rain – so it lasts a long time. Check out more of the article at http://greengiantpestcontrol.com/i-have-ants/.
