Carpenter ants do real damage
Carpenter ants are large, black ants common in Ontario homes and cottages, especially around Barrie, Simcoe County and treed neighbourhoods. They do not eat wood, but they hollow it out to nest, often in damp areas around windows, roofs, decks and sill plates.
Pavement ants and pharaoh ants are smaller nuisance ants that invade kitchens. Spraying the trail rarely works. The colony has to be treated.

Ant & Carpenter Ant Control questions
When are carpenter ants most active?
Usually spring and early summer, when you see the most ants and winged swarmers indoors.
Are carpenter ants as bad as termites?
They work more slowly, but over years they can weaken wood around windows, decks and roofs. Early treatment is worth it.
Do you treat cottages?
Yes. We service cottages and seasonal homes around Barrie, Innisfil, Orillia and Simcoe County.
