How Our Ant Control Works

Our process focuses on fast, reliable outcomes while minimizing risk to families, pets, and property.

  • Thorough Inspection & Accurate Identification
    We start with an inspection that spans kitchens, pantries, baseboards, crawlspaces, and exterior foundations. We note entry points, nesting areas, and food sources, focusing on hot spots unique to Burbank homes and businesses. Our technicians identify the specific ant species—such as Argentine, odorous house ants, Pharaoh ants, or even fire ants. Different ants require different techniques, so getting this step right shapes all that follows.
  • Personalized Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Plans
    Our approach prioritizes prevention and monitored intervention, not just spraying indiscriminately. We seal access points, advise on sanitation strategies, and use baiting systems carefully selected for the identified ant species. When treatments are needed, we select family- and pet-safe materials, applying them with precision for maximum effect and minimal disruption.
  • Safe Solutions for Homes with Kids & Pets
    Every service we deliver uses products and techniques chosen for their safety and efficacy, with measures in place to keep curious pets and children out of harm’s way. We favor baits and targeted applications rather than broadcast sprays, limiting environmental impact.
  • Ongoing Monitoring & Same-Day Appointments
    Ant issues usually don’t go away with a single visit. That’s why we include continuous monitoring and, when needed, follow-up treatments. Our team can often provide same-day or next-day service—because we know the local climate can bring ant infestations overnight.
  • Clear Communication, Including Spanish-Language Service
    Every step includes open updates in your preferred language. Whether you want a quick summary after treatment or detailed recommendations in Spanish, we make sure you know what’s happening and why.

IPM: The Smart Choice for Ant Control

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) goes beyond just “getting rid” of ants. Our process is informed by guidelines from leading research and extension programs. Here’s why this matters in your home or commercial property:

  • Accurate Identification. Targeting the right species means fixing the root of the problem rather than chasing symptoms.
  • Prevention is Key. By addressing food storage, sanitation, and structural problems, we disrupt what attracts new ants.
  • Monitoring and Ongoing Adjustment. Instead of resorting to repeated chemical use, we introduce focused solutions, update our plan as colony behavior changes, and reduce environmental impact.
  • Bait-based Solutions. Especially for Pharaoh and Argentine ants, baits are more effective and pose less risk than traditional sprays.
  • Education. We empower every customer, so clean-up habits and long-term strategies keep properties protected between visits.

Commercial Ant Control Solutions

Business properties face unique ant control challenges that require specialized approaches tailored to commercial environments. Restaurants, food service establishments, and retail facilities need rapid response capabilities that minimize disruption to daily operations.

We develop customized treatment protocols for commercial properties that address specific industry requirements and regulatory compliance needs. Our commercial services include detailed documentation that supports health department inspections and quality assurance programs.

Multi-tenant buildings require coordinated treatment approaches that address ant movement between units. We work with property managers to implement building-wide strategies that prevent ant problems from spreading throughout connected structures.

Healthcare facilities, schools, and other sensitive environments receive specialized treatment approaches that prioritize safety while maintaining effective ant control. Our technicians understand the unique requirements of these environments and adjust treatment methods accordingly.

FAQs

How quickly can you respond to an ant problem in Burbank? 

We offer same-day service appointments throughout Burbank and the greater Los Angeles area. Our scheduling system accommodates urgent requests, and our technicians can typically arrive within hours of your initial contact to begin assessment and treatment. Emergency situations receive priority scheduling to prevent ant problems from escalating.

Are your ant control methods safe for pets and children? 

Yes, we use integrated pest management techniques that prioritize safety for non-target species. Our bait stations are tamper-resistant and placed in areas inaccessible to children and pets, while our treatment materials meet strict safety standards for residential use. We provide detailed safety instructions and maintain open communication about treatment locations.

What types of ants are most common in Burbank homes? 

Argentine ants represent the most common species we encounter in Burbank properties, followed by carpenter ants in areas with mature trees and wooden structures. Pharaoh ants occur in multi-unit buildings, while fire ants appear in some outdoor areas. Our technicians identify specific species during initial inspections to ensure appropriate treatment selection.

Do you provide estimates before beginning treatment? 

We provide free estimates for all ant control services, including detailed assessments of your property's specific needs and customized treatment recommendations. Our estimates include transparent pricing with no hidden fees or surprise charges. We explain treatment options and expected timelines before beginning any work.

How long does it take to eliminate an ant infestation? 

Treatment timelines vary based on ant species, colony size, and property characteristics, but most residential ant problems show significant improvement within 1-2 weeks of initial treatment. Complete elimination may take several weeks as bait formulations work through entire colonies. We continue monitoring and adjusting our approach until total elimination is achieved.
