Types of ant
If you are experiencing problems with the following kinds of ants, then you could need our services.
The black ant (Garden Ant) is one of the most common and is found in the UK in gardens and buildings.
The Pharaoh, Ghost and Argentine Ant are only found inside buildings that are heated. These types of pests are not only irritating but can also become a health hazard. In addition, they are almost impossible to get rid of without professional help because their nests are inaccessible.
The Crazy Ant, Big Headed Ant and Roger’s Ant can be very troublesome indoors but are rarely seen in the UK.
The cause of ant infestations
In Manchester, a common form of pest is the Garden Ant, which lives in the soil and under stones. They can also be found in large numbers in the walls and foundations of houses and under the floors. This type of ant can gain entrance into a room through minute gaps, and as a nest can live for several years, it can be an unrelenting problem unless dealt with professionally.
The Garden Ant is attracted by food, and when this is found, the nest is alerted and a trail set up. Unfortunately, there is an above-average risk of contamination of food, drink, and work surfaces at this stage, and anything that they have picked up on their bodies can end up in food preparation areas.
Ant activity and seasons
The activity of ants outside is influenced by temperature, and the warmer it is, the greater the risk of an infestation. Spring and summer are risk seasons, and problems will continue until autumn. Ants living inside heated buildings can be active all year, and it is pretty common to find them in places such as hospitals and hotels.
In July and August, when it is is humid, it is not unusual to see flying ants that are the sexually mature form of the Garden Ant. However, in the hot summer conditions, the sight of swarms of flying ants can be alarming and could lead to problems if not controlled professionally.
Tropical ants
Tropical ants such as the Ghost or Argentine live in heated buildings around the UK. They are attracted to infected wounds and create multiple nests that can cause problems in hospitals. Ants such as these are small enough to invade sterile hospital packs and infest bedding, luggage and plants. If they have made nests in a building, they can only be removed entirely using professional pest control.
Ants and food businesses
Because of the stringent UK rules relating to food, ants can be a significant problem for a company. Under the Food Safety Act and the Food Hygiene Regulations, preparing food for the general public must be fit for human consumption. If ants have contaminated it, then the food producer is breaking the law.
Being in contravention of the food regulations can lead to substantial fines and bad publicity, so it is best to have the help of an expert such as Young’s Pest Control to maintain your legal liability.
The use of contract prevention to control ants is highly cost-effective. Avoiding an infestation of ants is a far more suitable solution than reacting to a situation after it has taken place. Therefore, contract pest control is appropriate for all food businesses, from large hotels to small fast-food outlets.
Methods of pest control
At Young’s, we use a variety of techniques for ant pest control. These include gels, sprays, dust and air treatment. Young’s professional control of ants is a cost-efficient and professional way to keep your business free from pests.
