Carpenter Ant Control in Vancouver

Protect Your Home's Wood Structure

Carpenter ants are a significant threat in coastal timber regions like Vancouver, North Shore, and Burnaby. Unlike termites that eat wood, carpenter ants hollow out tunnels inside structural beams to build nesting galleries. Over time, this wood excavation weakens your home's framing and foundations.

Our Ant Eradication Strategy

• Thermal & Sound Inspections: Finding hidden ant tunnels and nests inside structural walls without destructive drilling.
• Nest Eradication (Injections): Direct application of targeted treatments into nesting galleries to wipe out the queen and satellite colonies.
• Non-Repellent Perimeter Barriers: Creating a protective boundary around the house foundation that ants carry back to poison the colony.
• Moisture Source Identification: Sealing framing leaks and wet wood areas, which ants depend on for survival.

Why Early Spring Detection Matters

As weather warms in early spring, wing-bearing swarmer ants begin flight to establish new colonies. Noticing winged ants inside or sawdust-like piles (frass) near walls are key signs of an active colony. Addressing carpenter ants early prevents costly structural repair bills down the road.
