Ant Man to Save the Day!
Ant problems in your home or place of business can be not only a frustrating problem but also a dangerous situation for those who may be allergic or sensitive to them, particularly to the venom of fire ants. Since issues with fire ants usually (but not always) take place in the home. Let’s take a look at how to solve this issue and keep your space ant-free.
Removing Ants on Your Property
Fire ants are known for their painful, itchy bites that take the form of swollen red bumps. Their anthills tend to be larger than those of other ants, too, and are especially noticeable after it rains. Removing ants on your property comes down to either catching the problem early or bringing in professionals to help if the problem is already a bit out of control. Keep in mind that home remedies might seem to work at first but might not actually take care of the problem. It’s best to trust someone who does this kind of thing for a living to ensure everything is taken care of the first time.
Keep Ants out of Your House
Most of the time fire ants tend to stay outside of the house, but there are other types of ants that do become indoor nuisances, especially in the kitchen area where food is prepared and stored. To keep ants out of your house, particularly the kitchen, quick and thorough cleanups of any spills or messes is essential. When you leave food out for long periods of time, or you don’t take the trash out regularly, these things become food sources for pests like sugar ants.
The biggest issue with these infestations is that once you have them, they are nearly impossible to get rid of. The best way to beat them is to never let them gain a foot in the door in the first place. But once it’s too late for that, the next best move is to hire a company with expertise in getting rid of ants and other pests. By completely eliminating them from your home, you can start fresh with a clean kitchen routine and keep them gone for good.
When to Call the Experts for Ant Control
If you have tried various do-it-yourself methods and home or yard treatments and traps but found nothing that worked, or if you realize that you are dealing with a bigger issue than you can handle, you know it’s time to call the experts for ant control.
If you have been keeping your kitchen area clean, taking out your trash and regularly cleaning and disinfecting the container, as well as sealing off and properly storing all food, and you still can’t get rid of ants, or you are seeing multiple and/or large fire ant mounds in your yard, invest in experts to help.

John was very accommodating and went out of his way to satisfy our needs. We intend to keep his service and would highly recommend him to anyone. An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure.

For the job I had for EPC I am very satisfied. He has made a huge difference - Unfortunately this house had a roach infestation before, but now we are taking the step to end this nightmare. When I contacted EPC for pest control John was very fast in response, so yes I would refer him to others, prices are good and the service is good as well. John was on time, we are very happy.

Being allergic to most bug sprays, I was skeptical about having our yard sprayed. And living in the low country my entire life, I had accepted the fact that mosquitoes are just part of our environment. John came out and sprayed the yard. It was unbelievable! I was literally able to go outside and read a book in the grass. I am a believer!

John responded immediately by phone and treated my house the next day. He was very professional and advised me with the next steps to take to keep my home protected. I'm a very pleased customer and would hire him again, if needed.

I have been using Exclusive Pest Control for 3 years. We live on the golf course with the marsh behind us. So we have a LOT of mosquitos! John has been wonderful to work with and guarantees his services. Without doubt, I can call on a whim to say the bugs are attacking and he comes to our rescue! I’ve even sent him a text message the day before I am having an event at my home and he is always quick to arrive.

I would highly recommend John McGee and Exclusive Pest Control. They are very thorough and professional. I get reminders when my maintenance is due, instead of a just bill for it and no one ever showing up. He is the only one that has actually kept the mosquitos away. When I need an extra mosquito spray because of all the rain, they are always available to get right out, none of this we’ll be in your area in two weeks.
