No more painful fire ant stings when your kids play outside. No more ghost ants marching across your kitchen counters. No more carpenter ants quietly damaging your home’s structure.
When you call Around The Clock Pest Service, you get results that stick. We don’t just spray and leave—we identify the species, locate the colonies, and eliminate them at the source using targeted baiting systems and professional-grade treatments.
You’ll sleep better knowing your family is protected from Florida’s most aggressive ant species. Your home stays pest-free, your yard becomes safe again, and you get back to enjoying your property without constantly watching for ant trails.
George Lundin started Around The Clock Pest Service because Nobleton families deserved better than impersonal, overpriced pest control. When you call us, you talk directly to George—not a call center, not a sales rep.
We’ve earned over 100 five-star Google reviews by showing up when we say we will, using treatments that work, and treating every customer like family. Our BBB A+ rating and Florida Department of Agriculture license prove we do things the right way.
Living in Hernando County means dealing with Florida’s year-round pest pressure. We understand how fire ants build aggressive colonies in your yard, how ghost ants invade your kitchen during rainy season, and how carpenter ants target the humid wood around your home’s foundation.
First, we identify the ant species because different ants require different approaches. Fire ants need targeted mound treatments, ghost ants respond to specific baiting systems, and carpenter ants require structural inspection and exclusion work.
Next, we locate all colony sites—not just the ones you can see. Ants often have multiple satellite colonies, and missing even one means they’ll be back. We trace their trails, find their entry points, and map their entire network.
Then we apply targeted treatments that ants carry back to their colonies. This eliminates the queen and the entire population, not just the workers you see. We use non-repellent products that ants can’t detect, ensuring they don’t just move to a different part of your property.
Finally, we identify entry points and provide prevention recommendations so new colonies can’t establish. You get a follow-up call to ensure the treatment worked, and we’re available 24/7 if you need us back.

Our ant control service covers every species that invades Nobleton homes. Fire ant yard treatment protects your family from painful stings and aggressive attacks. Carpenter ant treatment prevents structural damage to your home’s wooden components.
Ghost ant extermination eliminates those tiny, nearly invisible ants that seem to appear overnight in your kitchen and bathroom. Sugar ant removal targets the sweet-seeking species that contaminate your food storage areas.
Nobleton’s humid climate and sandy soil create perfect conditions for pharaoh ants, crazy ants, and Argentine ants. Our baiting systems and targeted treatments work specifically against Florida’s most problematic species. We understand their nesting habits, seasonal patterns, and preferred food sources.
Your service includes species identification, colony elimination, entry point identifying, and prevention recommendations. We use EPA-approved products that are safe around children and pets but lethal to ant colonies.
Those tiny ants are most likely ghost ants, one of the most common household pests in Nobleton and throughout Florida. Ghost ants have translucent bodies with dark heads, making them almost invisible until they form trails across your counters.
They’re attracted to moisture and sweet substances, which is why they target kitchens and bathrooms. Florida’s humidity creates ideal conditions for ghost ants, and they can enter through the smallest cracks around windows, doors, or plumbing.
Ghost ants establish multiple satellite colonies, so killing the ones you see doesn’t solve the problem. They need targeted baiting systems that workers carry back to eliminate the entire colony structure, including the queens.
Permanent fire ant control requires targeting the entire colony structure, not just individual mounds. Fire ants in Nobleton build extensive underground networks with multiple queens, so surface treatments only provide temporary relief.
We use professional-grade baiting systems that fire ant workers carry back to the colony. The bait eliminates queens, larvae, and the entire population over 2-3 weeks. We also treat satellite mounds and potential nesting sites around your property.
Fire ant prevention involves regular monitoring and retreatment as needed. Florida’s climate means new colonies can establish year-round, so quarterly prevention programs provide the best long-term protection for your family and pets.
The best outdoor ant control combines targeted species identification with professional-grade treatments designed for Florida’s climate. Different ant species require different approaches—fire ants need mound treatments, carpenter ants need structural exclusion, and crazy ants need specialized baiting.
Perimeter treatments create a protective barrier around your home’s foundation, while targeted baiting eliminates colonies at their source. We focus on entry points, moisture sources, and potential nesting sites specific to your property.
Florida’s year-round pest pressure means outdoor ant control works best as part of a quarterly prevention program. This provides consistent protection against seasonal invasions and prevents new colonies from establishing near your home.
Professional ant treatment typically provides 3-6 months of protection, depending on the species and environmental conditions. Fire ant treatments often last longer because we eliminate entire colony structures, while ghost ant treatments may need more frequent attention due to their rapid reproduction.
Nobleton’s humid climate and sandy soil create ongoing pest pressure, so most homeowners benefit from quarterly treatments. This ensures consistent protection against seasonal invasions and prevents new colonies from establishing.
We provide follow-up calls to monitor treatment effectiveness and offer retreatment if needed. Our goal is complete elimination, not just temporary reduction, so we stand behind our work with responsive customer service.
Yes, our professional ant baiting systems are specifically designed to be safe around children and pets when properly installed. We use tamper-resistant bait stations that prevent accidental contact, and our baits contain food-grade attractants with minimal active ingredients.
The baits work by targeting ants’ specific biology and behavior patterns. Ants consume small amounts and carry the bait back to their colonies, where it eliminates the entire population. Children and pets aren’t attracted to the bait formulations we use.
We always explain placement locations and safety precautions during service. Our technicians are trained in proper application techniques that maximize effectiveness while minimizing any risk to your family. All products are EPA-approved and applied according to strict label guidelines.
Carpenter ant treatment requires structural inspection and exclusion work because these ants excavate galleries in wood to create nesting sites. Unlike other ants that just forage for food, carpenter ants can cause significant property damage over time.
We inspect areas with moisture issues, damaged wood, and potential entry points around your home’s structure. Treatment involves eliminating existing colonies, identifying entry points, and addressing moisture problems that attract carpenter ants.
Carpenter ants in Florida don’t actually eat wood like termites, but they hollow it out for nesting. This means we focus on finding and treating their galleries, not just surface activity. Prevention involves ongoing moisture control and structural maintenance to keep them from returning.
