The peace of mind is real when you know a family-owned business with over 100 five-star reviews has your back, available 24/7 when you need us most.
We’ve been protecting Zephyrhills West families from ant infestations since 2020. We’re not some corporate chain—you work directly with the owner, George, every time you call.
Our state-certified technicians understand exactly how Florida’s humid climate creates perfect conditions for ghost ants, fire ants, and carpenter ants to thrive year-round in Pasco County. We’ve seen how these pests behave differently in Zephyrhills West’s sandy soil and know which treatment approaches actually work long-term.
When you call our number, you get a real person who answers 24/7, even on weekends, because ant problems don’t stick to business hours.
First, we identify exactly which ant species you’re dealing with—ghost ants need different treatment than fire ants or carpenter ants. Most quotes happen right over the phone, so you know what to expect before we arrive.
Our certified technician shows up on time and targets the actual colony, not just the ants you can see. We use professional-grade ant baiting systems that worker ants carry back to eliminate the queen and entire nest structure.
You’ll see results within days, and we guarantee our work. If ants return between scheduled treatments, we come back at no extra cost because your satisfaction matters more than a quick sale.

Your ant control service includes thorough property inspection, species identification, targeted colony elimination, and ongoing prevention strategies. We handle everything from tiny sugar ants in your pantry to aggressive fire ant mounds in your yard.
Zephyrhills West’s warm, humid climate means ant activity continues year-round, unlike northern areas where cold weather provides natural breaks. Our treatments account for local conditions—sandy soil that fire ants love, the moisture that attracts carpenter ants, and the food sources that draw ghost ants indoors.
We also provide military discounts and special rates for new homeowners because we believe everyone deserves a pest-free home. Each treatment comes with clear communication about what we found, what we treated, and how to prevent future problems.
Those tiny ants are most likely ghost ants, which are extremely common in Zephyrhills West due to our humid climate. Ghost ants are attracted to sweet substances and moisture, making kitchens their favorite target.
These ants can nest both indoors and outdoors, often building colonies in wall voids, under baseboards, or in plant cavities outside. Unlike some ant species, ghost ants can establish multiple satellite colonies, which is why you keep seeing them even after cleaning.
Store-bought sprays only kill the ants you can see, but the colony remains active. Professional ant baiting systems target the entire colony structure, including the queen, for permanent elimination.
Fire ants thrive in Zephyrhills West’s sandy soil and warm climate, making them a year-round problem that requires professional treatment. DIY methods like boiling water or store-bought granules only provide temporary relief because they don’t eliminate the queen deep within the colony.
Professional fire ant treatment uses specialized granular baits that worker ants carry back to the colony. The queen becomes unable to reproduce, causing the entire colony to die off naturally over one life cycle.
Our treatment provides 85-95% fire ant reduction for up to four months. Regular treatments every four months maintain long-term control because fire ants are mobile and will reinfest treated areas from neighboring properties.
Carpenter ants don’t eat wood like termites—they excavate it to create nesting galleries. You’ll often find small piles of sawdust or wood shavings near windows, doors, or wooden beams where carpenter ants are active.
Carpenter ants are attracted to moisture-damaged wood, so they’re commonly found in areas with leaks, poor ventilation, or high humidity. In Zephyrhills West’s climate, this includes bathrooms, kitchens, and areas around air conditioning units.
Unlike termites that cause structural damage by eating wood, carpenter ants hollow out wood for shelter. Both require professional treatment, but the approaches are completely different. Proper identification is crucial for effective treatment.
You’ll typically see significant reduction in ant activity within 3-7 days of professional treatment, depending on the species and colony size. Ghost ants and sugar ants respond faster than carpenter ants or fire ants because of their different feeding behaviors.
The complete elimination process takes 2-4 weeks as the bait works through the entire colony structure. Worker ants must carry the treatment back to the nest and share it with other colony members, including the queen.
Some ant activity may initially increase as disturbed colonies move around, but this is normal and indicates the treatment is working. We provide follow-up service if you see continued activity beyond the expected timeframe.
Yes, our professional ant control treatments are designed to be safe for families and pets when applied correctly. We use targeted baiting systems and crack-and-crevice treatments that minimize exposure while maximizing effectiveness against ant colonies.
Modern ant control products have very low toxicity to mammals but are highly effective against insects. We place bait stations in areas where ants travel but children and pets don’t typically access, such as behind appliances or in wall voids.
We always discuss safety protocols during treatment and provide specific instructions for any precautions needed. Our state-certified technicians are trained in proper application methods that protect your family while eliminating ant problems.
Keep your kitchen clean and store food in airtight containers, especially sweet items that attract ghost ants and sugar ants. Wipe down countertops daily and don’t leave pet food out overnight.
Fix moisture problems immediately—leaky pipes, poor ventilation, and standing water attract carpenter ants and provide ideal conditions for colony establishment. In Zephyrhills West’s humid climate, proper ventilation is especially important.
Seal entry points around windows, doors, and utility penetrations with caulk. Trim vegetation away from your home’s exterior and remove debris that provides nesting sites. However, prevention alone isn’t enough once colonies are established—professional treatment is needed for complete elimination.
