Ant Control Whitstable
Weatherboard cottage gardens and a seafood trade's food waste both give ants reasons to trail toward a Whitstable property.
Ant Control in Whitstable
Cottage gardens with older paving offer the usual nest-site choice, while the town's food and hospitality trade adds a stronger-than-usual food draw for any trail reaching toward a kitchen or waste area.
Harbourside and high street premises near food waste can see more persistent trail activity through summer than a purely residential street.
Local pattern
Old Paving, And A Stronger Food Draw From The Harbour Trade
A survey checks cottage garden paving for the usual nest sites, alongside tracing any trail toward food or waste areas near the harbour or high street.
For food and hospitality businesses, waste storage discipline reduces the draw, alongside the gel bait treatment itself.
Gel bait taken back to the nest deals with the colony regardless of how strong the local food draw is.
