Get Rid of Ants in the Seattle Region

Ant control is challenging, even for a professional. The biting, stinging, swarming types of ants that thrive in Seattle make it a specialized service. It isn't surprising that ant control is one of our most common pest control calls.

The success of ant control is dependent on removing the entire colony, consisting of multiple nests. You must also exterminate the Queen of all nest queens. Killing the ants you see or find only causes the colony to fracture, worsening the problem.
