Rossendale Flying Ant Control

Flying ants are a side effect of ants nests. Flying ants aren’t a different kind of ant. At certain points of the year, flying or swarming ants will emerge from existing ant nests. These flying ants are mating ants. They will swarm for a day or two and then seek to begin a new colony. Generally, flying ants outside are a nuisance but should not cause a serious risk. They are able to bite or sting if threatened, but almost never do so in large numbers.

Typically flying ants in the garden should simply be left to swarm. They should only do so for a few days each year. The best treatment for eradicating flying ants is to destroy the nests before the time when the flying ants swarm. Professional pest control companies can survey the area whether it is inside your home or outside and identify the ant nest. They’ll then be able to destroy the nests using an insecticide powder or spray.

How to get rid of flying ants

Considerable numbers of flying ants in the home should be dealt with as soon as possible. They are likely a symptom of ant nests inside the house, which should be damaged quickly. In the same way, if large numbers of flying ants are present in your garden and causing damage or injury, a professional pest control company should be engaged. The company will be able to use a knock down insecticide to get rid of the flying ants. This should only be achieved along with locating and eradicating the nests in order to be a successful and permanent treatment for a flying ant infestation.
