Most Common Types of Ants in NC and TN.

Fire Ants

Fire ants are small to medium-sized reddish-brown ants that build loose, dome-shaped soil mounds in lawns, fields, and landscaped areas. They are commonly encountered when their nests are disturbed and are known for aggressively swarming and delivering painful stings to people and pets.

Field Ants

Growing up to eight millimeters long, field ants are on the larger side. They can be yellow, black, or red. They are commonly confused with carpenter ants because they live outside, but will move into your home if there is a food source. They build mounds using sticks or leaves to house their colony.

Odorous House Ants

Odorous house ants are tiny, dark brown, or black ants that form trails along countertops, cupboards, and food areas in search of sugar-rich meals. When crushed, they release a distinctive, rotten, coconut-like odor.

Argentine Ants

Argentine ants are medium-sized, shiny brown ants known for their aggressive behavior and massive colonies. In Utah, they are commonly found invading food storage areas or moist environments like kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms.

Science Drives Our Treatments

Eradicare’s Ant Management Process

Identification, Treatment, and Prevention

Ant Inspection

Correctly identifying the type of ant on your property is the first step in our control process. Every species has unique biology, behaviors, and habits that our team and on-staff entomologists carefully analyze to ensure effective treatment.

  • Pavement Ants: Pavement ants are small, dark brown, or black ants that create dirt mounds along sidewalks or between pavement cracks. They are frequently spotted foraging for crumbs and food scraps near outdoor seating or patios.

  • Odorous House Ants: Odorous house ants are tiny, dark brown, or black ants that form trails along countertops, cupboards, and food areas in search of sugar-rich meals. When crushed, they release a distinctive, rotten, coconut-like odor.

  • Argentine Ants: Argentine ants are medium-sized, shiny brown ants known for their aggressive behavior and massive colonies. In Utah, they are commonly found invading food storage areas or moist environments like kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms.

  • Field Ants: Growing up to eight millimeters long, field ants are on the larger side. They can be yellow, black, or red. They are commonly confused with carpenter ants because they live outside, but will move into your home if there is a food source. They build mounds using sticks or leaves to house their colony.

At Eradicare Pest Management, we deliver high-quality, thorough, and long-lasting solutions for every pest service we provide. Finding pests inside or outside your home means the conditions are right for other pests to invade. Insects like can use the same cracks in walls and gaps in weather stripping to get into a house. Pests can also be a consistent food source for other pests as well.

Here’s how Eradicare eliminates ants from your property and stops them from coming back:

Ant Treatments

At Eradicare, we customize our treatments to fit your needs. A few things we consider when building your pest control plan are:

  • Type of Ant Infestation: Understanding the ant species invading your property allows us to use the correct tools, techniques, and strategies. We consider factors such as the typical colony size, number of queens, nesting habits, and food preferences to target the infestation effectively.

  • Entry Points & Food Sources: We will locate entry points, create barriers, and place deterrents to protect your home's boundary and help prevent ant infestations. We recommend ensuring all food is in sealed containers and cleaning up any food residue. Regular cleaning and vacuuming will create an environment that is less enticing to ants.

  • Property Size and Layout: The size and complexity of your property impact how we place traps, attractants, and distribute treatment materials. We carefully assess your space to ensure all nests, trails, and potential entry points are addressed, leaving no spots for ants to hide.

  • Environmental Conditions & Property Location: Moisture levels, local weather patterns, and your property’s location influence the type of ant species likely to invade your home. Our team considers these factors to identify which species are present, why they’re attracted to your property, and how to treat them.

Ant Prevention

Prevention is the last step in our ant control process. As the best ant killer in North Carolina and Tennessee, here’s how our team helps you keep ants out for good:

  • Expert Recommendations: Our team provides tailored advice on reducing attractants such as food crumbs, standing water, and nesting sites around your property. We believe every client should be educated and empowered to take proactive steps to protect their property.

  • Exclusion Services: We offer exclusion services for home and business owners in Utah. Our pest experts identify and seal potential entry points, such as cracks, gaps, and crevices, using techniques like caulking, weather stripping, and installing pest-resistant barriers.
