Professional Ant Control In Bootle

• An impregnated queen makes a nest and lays her eggs.
• The eggs hatch after one to four weeks and become grubs tended to by the queen for a further two weeks.
• The grubs have grown into worker ants that forage for food and look after further generations of grubs produced by the queen.
• When it is time to mate again, fertile male and queen ants grow wings and become airborne.
• Flying ant infestation typically take place in mid-July. The swarming typically lasts for around 2-3 hours until mating is completed, then the male ants die, and the females lose their wings.
