Call 908-352-7959 — Free QuoteNew Jersey homes face several ant species. Carpenter ants burrow into wood framing and can cause structural damage if left untreated. Pavement ants nest under slabs and driveways, sending foragers into kitchens and bathrooms. Odorous house ants give off a rotten coconut smell when crushed and form massive colonies with multiple queens. Each species requires a different treatment approach — and we know which one works.
We start with a thorough inspection to identify the ant species, locate entry points, and find the nest. Treatment includes targeted baiting systems that workers carry back to the colony, perimeter barrier treatments, and crack-and-crevice applications. For carpenter ants, we perform a wood damage assessment and treat wall voids directly.
Sawdust-like frass near baseboards or window frames. Large black ants (1/4 to 1/2 inch) seen indoors, especially at night. Rustling sounds inside walls. Hollow-sounding wood when tapped. If you notice any of these signs, call us immediately — carpenter ant damage compounds over time.
Ant treatments start at $150 for interior service. Carpenter ant treatments with wall void injection start at $350. All treatments include a follow-up visit and satisfaction guarantee.
