Common Types of Ants in South Carolina & Georgia

The most common ant species that may infest homes and yards in South Carolina and Georgia include the following:

  • Fire: These insects are famous for their red color. They build mounds and can often be found in your yard, especially in sunny areas. Fire ants can bite humans and pets, which may be painful. Their bites also pose threats to those who are allergic.
  • Argentine: These light to dark brown ants can build nests just about anywhere, including in your walls and insulation. They also create highways that lead into your home, where you may find these pests roaming around indoors.
  • Odorous: As their name implies, odorous house ants emit a smell when crushed or threatened. These vary in color from light brown to black and have six legs like all other ant species. These tend to nest outdoors near structures and enter homes to forage for food.
  • Carpenter: These are relatively larger ants that prefer to live inside and feed on wood. This makes carpenter ant infestations a serious risk to the structural integrity of your home's wooden features. 
  • Pavement: These are the smallest type of ant. You may find them around your yard, driveway, or inside of your home near food sources. They are either black or dark red. 

Regardless of the species, ants in or around your home should be dealt with as soon as possible. Leaving an infestation can lead to greater problems. At the first sign of trouble with ants, contact Compass Pest Management.

Our Ant Control Process

Should you enlist the help of our Greenville ant control services, you can expect us to go through the following steps:

  1. First, we evaluate the infestation to locate its source and determine the species of ant(s) that have invaded your space. Using the information gathered, we customize a treatment plan in order to avoid random pesticide application. 
  2. When necessary, we place pest monitors in target locations to accurately detect hotspots of pest activity. 
  3. Finally, we apply a protective barrier outside the home to prevent future problems. Our goal is to solve pest problems while minimizing pesticide use. We do this to safeguard the health and safety of our customers and their loved ones and pets. 

Integrated Pest Management & Ant Control

Our ant control specialists use integrated pest management (IPM) solutions, which use physical, mechanical, biological, and educational methods to effectively control ants and other pests--all while reducing the risk to humans. IPM is not a one-size-fits-all approach; rather, we develop a treatment plan to fit every customer's unique needs. 

In the context of ant control, IPM often features exclusion measures, sanitation, and treatments using our EPA-approved products. IPM also involves ongoing monitoring of our treatments’ effectiveness. If ant activity persists after treatment or returns at any point during the year (which can occur with certain species), we can perform additional services. In fact, we offer convenient and affordable annual and quarterly control plans.

Ant Control with TAP Insulation

Do you want a sustainable, long-term solution to ant and other pest infestations? TAP insulation (short for “thermo acoustical pest control” insulation) could be right for you. It is loose-fill insulation, meaning we install it by blowing it into target areas, from attics to crawl spaces, and more. Once in place, it can prevent insect intruders from moving in, taking up residence, and multiplying.

TAP insulation is made primarily from paper with boric acid added. The combination of these materials makes it a natural deterrent for ants and other pests. When they come into contact with or ingest TAP, the boric acid dehydrates them, ultimately leading to their death.

The other crucial feature of TAP is its energy efficiency. It can increase your home’s R-value (a measure of thermal resistance), thus reducing your utility bills significantly. If you are interested in equipping your home, business, or another building with TAP insulation, contact us. We offer expert installation services backed by our unparalleled industry experience.
