Ant Control

Ant Control in Bellingham, WA 

Effective & Reliable Ant Extermination Services in Whatcom, Snohomish & Skagit Counties

Ants are relentless. You kill the ones you see, they disappear for a day, and then they are back. The reason is simple: the ones you see are just foragers. The colony is somewhere else, hidden, with a queen laying thousands of eggs. Until you eliminate the colony, the problem does not actually go away.

That is why DIY ant control treatments rarely work. Store-bought sprays kill the ants you can see but leave the colony completely untouched. Different ant species also need different approaches, and if you misidentify what you have, you could waste weeks treating it wrong.

At Bio Bug Pest Management, we identify exactly what ant species you have, locate the nest, and eliminate the colony in a way that is safe for your family, home, and environment.

Signs of an Ant Infestation

A few signs point to a real ant problem versus just a casual visitor or two.

Signs of an infestation include:

  • Ant trails. If you see consistent lines of ants marching the same route, they have established a highway to a food or water source. That means they are organized, established, and not going away on their own.
  • Sawdust piles. If you find unexplained piles of what looks like sawdust under beams, in crawlspaces, or along baseboards, you might have carpenter ants. These ants tunnel through wood to create nesting galleries, damaging your home's structure over time.
  • Nests in walls or soil. Sometimes you will find dirt piles indoors or notice ants emerging from wall cavities. That means they are not just visiting, they are living in your house.

The Ants You Will Run into in Whatcom, Snohomish & Skagit Counties

Bellingham has three main ant species that cause problems:

  • Carpenter ants. This species is the most significant concern, because they can damage your home. They do not eat wood, but they tunnel through it to build their nests, weakening structural integrity over time. They love damp wood, which we have plenty of in this climate.
  • Odorous house ants. Small, dark, and attracted to moisture and sweets. They swarm kitchens and bathrooms. Their colonies can be in the thousands, and they often set up multiple satellite nests, which makes them annoying to deal with.
  • Pavement ants: These insects usually establish their colonies outdoors beneath rocks or within cracks in concrete. However, they frequently enter homes through small gaps in the foundation, becoming a nuisance primarily in kitchens and on ground-level floors.

Why DIY Ant Control Fails Every Time

You spot ants, you get annoyed, and you reach for the spray. A few days later, the remaining ants recover and restart their trail. You spray again. This loop continues until you finally give up or bring in competent help. Why does this happen? The aerosol treatment kills only the insects it hits, failing to reach the colony or the queen. 

Furthermore, if you apply treatment for the wrong kind of ant, you lose valuable time and money with a method that was never going to succeed. Carpenter ants require a different approach than common sugar ants. Mistake one for the other, and your efforts are wasted.

With professional treatment, we locate the nest, determine the species, and wipe out the entire colony. That is the way actually to stop the cycle. And we can do that quickly, safely, and professionally.
