Cedar Park Ant Control Service

Common Types of Ants in Cedar Park, Texas

Fire Ants

These aggressive red ants build distinctive mounds of nests throughout Cedar Park’s lawns and landscapes. Fire ants deliver stings that can cause severe reactions in sensitive individuals. They’re problematic after rainfall when they move to the surface and become more active. Our treatments eliminate existing mounds while preventing new colonies from establishing on your property.

Carpenter Ants

Larger than most ant species, carpenter ants pose structural threats to Cedar Park homes. Unlike termites, they don’t eat wood but excavate it to build nests, potentially causing damage to wooden structures. These ants establish colonies in moisture-damaged wood around windows, decks, and roof eaves. Our treatments target parent and satellite colonies to eliminate these destructive pests.

Acrobat Ants

Named for their ability to raise their abdomen over their thorax when disturbed, acrobat ants commonly invade Cedar Park homes through tiny cracks and crevices. They’re attracted to sweet foods and often establish nests in wall voids and wooden structures with moisture damage. Our treatments seal entry points while eliminating existing colonies.

Pharaoh Ants

These tiny yellowish ants are notorious for establishing multiple colonies throughout Cedar Park properties, making them difficult to control with DIY methods. They’re attracted to sweet and protein-rich foods and can spread bacteria as they move between food sources. Our treatments target all colonies simultaneously to prevent the colony-splitting behavior that makes these ants so persistent.

Argentine Ants

Cedar Park properties frequently battle these invasive ants that form supercolonies with multiple queens. They create trail systems and can quickly overtake outdoor spaces and enter homes seeking food and moisture. Their colony structure makes it challenging to eliminate them without professional intervention. Our barrier treatments create long-lasting protection against these invaders.
