Are ant invasions bothering you? Do they make your daily life frustrating? These pests can spread germs and allergens in your home, and their presence may also attract other unwanted visitors, like spiders and centipedes. The longer you wait, the more these colonies grow. This makes it harder to eliminate them. Skilled ant control specialists can fully eliminate your ant problem.

Since 1971, Ja-Roy has been your local leader in ant pest control. The team here knows that ants are a frustrating pest problem, as well as how difficult they are to get rid of on your own. Our ant control experts are committed to keeping you and your family safe from ant infestations. They also set up prevention strategies to keep ants away for good in your Louisiana home.

Carpenter Ant Control

Finding big black ants in your home? You might be dealing with carpenter ants. People often mistake them for termites, but they can still harm your property.

The trained carpenter ant specialists at Ja-Roy are ready to protect your home from carpenter ants, as well as many other ant species.

Our Ant Control Process

At Ja-Roy, we offer reliable solutions to remove ants from your Louisiana home. Our technicians follow this step-by-step method for the best results:

  1. Thorough Assessment: Our technicians check your property for access points, active pathways, and colony spots. They also look at water sources and attractants. Ant issues often come from multiple connected colonies. 
  2. Strategic Application: We use targeted treatments for ant colonies at every stage of development. Our methods rely on proven techniques that focus on the specific behaviors of each species. We prefer using special baits. Worker ants carry these baits to their nest. 
  3. Ongoing Protection: Nobody wants ants coming back. We focus on preventive steps. These measures stop future invasions and disrupt colony formation. Our team offers clear tips on sealing entry points and changing conditions that attract ants.

Ant Exterminators for YOUR HOME

Ants are the number one nuisance household pest, meaning most of us have dealt with an ant problem at one point or another. Faced with this problem, many of us have also tried to get rid of the ants all on our own. Unfortunately, these DIY methods rarely work. A small ant problem can quickly explode as one colony can split off into more. To stop ants, it’s important to work with your local ant removal experts who know how to get to the root of the problem.

Whether you have a full-blown ant infestation or just a few ants in your kitchen, Ja-Roy can help. We will take the following steps to keep you and your home or business safe from ant infestations:

  3. We will provide ongoing ant removal and prevention tips to avoid future infestations.

Ant Exterminators for YOUR BUSINESS

FAQs

With 50+ years serving Louisiana, Ja-Roy has developed deep expertise in Louisiana ant behavior and control. And we’re happy to share tips for homeowners dealing with ants. 

Have specific concerns about ants in your property? Our team is ready to answer your questions!

Look for these key features: ants have three distinct body segments (head, thorax, and abdomen), six legs, and elbowed antennae.

In Louisiana, you’re likely to encounter fire ants, carpenter ants, crazy ants, and Argentine ants. Our ant control experts can find the species in your home fast. They’ll create a targeted treatment plan just for you.

Getting rid of fire ants requires professional treatment for complete elimination. While you may be tempted to use home remedies, fire ant colonies can extend several feet underground with multiple queens, making DIY solutions ineffective.

Watch for these warning signs: visible ant trails along walls, countertops, or floors, small piles of dirt or debris near cracks and crevices, wood shavings (indicating carpenter ants), discarded wing segments near windows or doors, and rustling sounds in walls.

In Louisiana’s humid climate, you might also notice ants near water sources like sinks, bathrooms, or air conditioning units.

  • Seal cracks and crevices around doors, windows, and foundations with caulk.
  • Keep your kitchen clean by wiping counters daily, storing food in airtight containers, and promptly cleaning spills.
  • Fix leaky pipes and eliminate standing water.
  • Trim tree branches and shrubs away from your home’s exterior.
  • Remove wood piles and debris near your foundation.

Store-bought ant sprays can kill visible ants. However, they often fail to tackle the real issue: the colony. These sprays often cause colonies to split and spread, making infestations worse.

Professional exterminators, like Ja-Roy, use integrated pest management techniques, including specialized baits, growth regulators, and targeted treatments that eliminate entire colonies.

Absolutely. We understand your pets are family members, and their safety is our priority. Our ant control experts use safe, pet-friendly treatments while following strict safety rules.

Call our ant exterminators if you see ants coming back, find multiple trails in your home, or notice damage from carpenter ants.
