The Merits of Professional Altrincham Ant Infestation Removal

There are tens of endemic and introduced ant species in the UK. The diversity and size of these species are largely dependent on the soil temperature. Lasius niger (black garden ant) and Myrmica Rubra are the most common ant species in the UK, covering most of the country.

Why Fight Ant Infestation?

• You should get professional Altrincham ant infestation removal because some ants have painful bites. Bites by some ants lead to allergic reactions, with symptoms including chest pains, dizziness, difficulty in breathing, hives, and swelling of the tongue and throat. It is particularly important that households that have kids and/or pets do ant control.

• Ants contaminate food and water supplies, making such supplies useless. They are also appetite killers.

• You should do ant control to avoid embarrassing moments when you have guests around given that most people associate ants and other pests with untidiness.

• An ant infestation in your yard will prevent you from enjoying outdoor activities.

• Some ant species (such as carpenter ants) cause damage to property by hollowing out space in wood while others kill grass and other plants by eating their roots. Yet others damage paved areas by removing sand.

Ants live in colonies. As an example, Lasius niger lives in colonies of between 4,000 and 7,000 on average. A single ant may not cause much damage, but a whole colony could cause great devastation.
