You’ll wake up tomorrow without finding ants marching across your counters. No more discovering trails leading to your pantry or watching them swarm around pet food bowls.
Our ant control treatments target the entire colony, not just the ants you see. That means no more surprise invasions next week or next month.
You get your kitchen back. Your peace of mind returns. And you stop wasting weekends on DIY treatments that barely work.
We’ve been protecting Berkeley homes and businesses from ant invasions for years. As a family-run operation, you work directly with the owner on every job—no middlemen, no runaround.
We know Florida ants. From sugar ants in your kitchen to fire ants in your yard, we’ve seen every species that calls Hernando County home. Our state-certified technicians understand exactly how these pests behave and what it takes to eliminate them permanently.
Over 100 five-star Google reviews prove we deliver what we promise. Berkeley residents trust us because we answer every call personally and respond within 24 hours—even on weekends.
First, we identify the ant species you’re dealing with. Sugar ants need different treatment than carpenter ants or fire ants. Getting this right from the start saves you time and money.
Next, we locate the colony source. Most companies just spray what they see, but we track ants back to their nests. That’s where the real problem lives.
Then we apply targeted treatments using professional-grade baiting systems and barrier applications. The ants carry our treatment back to the colony, eliminating the entire population including the queen.
Finally, we create a prevention plan specific to your property. We identify entry points, eliminate attractants, and schedule follow-up treatments to keep new colonies from establishing.

Your ant control service includes species identification, colony elimination, and ongoing prevention. We handle every type of ant common to Berkeley: sugar ants in kitchens, carpenter ants in wooden structures, ghost ants around bathrooms, fire ants in yards, and pharaoh ants in commercial buildings.
Berkeley’s humid subtropical climate creates perfect conditions for year-round ant activity. Our treatments account for Florida’s unique weather patterns and the seasonal behaviors of local ant species.
You receive upfront pricing with most quotes provided over the phone. No surprises, no hidden fees. Military families and new homeowners qualify for special discounts because we believe everyone deserves a pest-free home.
Those tiny ants are most likely sugar ants (also called little black ants) attracted to food residue, spills, or moisture around your sink and counters. Even microscopic crumbs or a drop of juice can draw entire colonies into your kitchen.
Sugar ants follow scent trails left by scout ants, which is why you see them marching in lines. Once they establish these trails, more ants follow the same path, creating the invasion you’re seeing.
The key is eliminating both the ants you see and the colony they’re coming from. Surface sprays might kill visible ants, but the colony will just send more. Professional baiting systems let ants carry treatment back to their nest, eliminating the source of your problem.
Fire ant mounds in Florida yards require professional treatment because these aggressive ants will relocate if disturbed improperly. DIY treatments often scatter the colony, creating multiple smaller mounds across your property.
Professional fire ant treatment uses targeted baiting systems that worker ants carry back to the queen. This eliminates the entire colony from within, preventing the mound from simply moving to another location in your yard.
We also apply barrier treatments around your property perimeter to prevent new fire ant colonies from establishing. Florida’s warm climate means fire ants remain active year-round, so ongoing prevention is essential for keeping your yard safe for family and pets.
The most effective outdoor ant control combines targeted baiting systems with perimeter barrier treatments. Baiting eliminates existing colonies while barriers prevent new ants from establishing around your home’s foundation.
Florida’s diverse ant species require different approaches. Carpenter ants damaging wooden structures need different treatment than sugar ants entering through door frames or fire ants building mounds in landscaping.
Professional treatment accounts for Florida’s year-round ant activity and seasonal patterns. We time applications for maximum effectiveness and use products designed for our humid subtropical climate. Regular maintenance treatments keep your property protected as new colonies attempt to move in from neighboring areas.
You’ll typically see significant reduction in ant activity within 24-48 hours, with complete elimination of visible ants within one week. However, full colony elimination takes 2-3 weeks as baiting systems work through the entire population.
The timeline depends on ant species and colony size. Sugar ant colonies respond faster than large carpenter ant colonies established in wooden structures. Fire ant mounds may take longer due to their complex social structure and multiple queens.
Don’t worry if you see increased ant activity immediately after treatment—this is normal. Baiting systems attract ants initially as they carry treatment back to the colony. This increased activity means the treatment is working and will lead to complete elimination.
Yes, our ant control treatments are designed to be safe around families and pets when applied by licensed technicians. We use targeted baiting systems that contain treatment within tamper-resistant stations, keeping it away from children and pets.
Our treatments focus on precision application rather than broad spraying. Baiting systems deliver treatment directly to ant colonies while minimizing exposure to your family. We also use products specifically approved for indoor and outdoor residential use.
We’ll provide specific safety instructions after treatment, including any temporary restrictions on treated areas. Most treatments allow normal family activities to resume within hours of application, giving you peace of mind along with ant control.
Ant control costs vary based on the species, colony size, and treatment complexity. Most Berkeley residents pay between $150-$300 for initial treatment, with ongoing prevention services available at reduced rates.
We provide upfront pricing with most quotes given over the phone, so you know exactly what to expect before we arrive. No hidden fees or surprise charges—just transparent pricing for effective ant control.
