What’s causing these ant issues?
The cause of most ant infestations is simple: food. Ants often invade homes and buildings because they often provide easy and enticing sources of food.
Black ants are often attracted to sweet foods and pet food, and make their way indoors through cracks and crevices while searching for food.
Crazy ants, pavement ants, big-headed ants, rover ants, and other common ants that we find throughout Phoenix, Arizona are attracted to various types of food-based upon the ant species and the age of the colony whether it is a growing colony or mature colony.

Treatment Plans
The first step in any treatment plan is finding what is attracting the ants and removing the source or stopping access to it.
Then we inspect to find where the ants are coming from. This is often done by following the ant “trails” that they often follow. These trails will lead to the surface opening to the colony. Our customers often help us find these entrances by simply telling us where they see the most ant activity. Once we locate the colony entrances, we often use baits, non-repellents or a combination of both.
Baits
Baits use an attractant that ants think is food. Baits draw in foraging ants, which then take the bait back to the colony, where it is shared with the other ants. Baits often create more ant activity initially because the baits are attracting more ants. The bait’s active ingredient is untraceable and slow-acting, giving the ants plenty of time to spread it throughout the colony – ultimately reaching the queen, which eliminates the colony.
Non-repellents
Because ants can’t detect non-repellent treatments, applying the liquid at the colony entrances means the ants will pick up the product as they go out to forage and carry it back inside the colony when they return. The non-repellent product will eventually spread through the colony, eventually reaching – and eliminating – the queen.

Ant Prevention
One of the easiest prevention steps you can take is to keep your food sealed in airtight containers and clean up crumbs, spilled pet food or any other food sources that might attract ants.
You can also try to seal up cracks and crevices around your home. However, you should be aware that since ants are so common and are such prolific colonizers it is normal to have ants reestablish themselves around a home or building. Ants are small, industrious, and relentless, and if they want to find a way into your home, they likely will. At Blue Sky Pest Control, our goal is to keep ants (and all pests) out. Our ant exterminators do a great job at it! Each Blue Sky service plan provides coverage for ants and is backed by a simple guarantee: “If between your scheduled treatments you feel you need additional service or are not satisfied, please call us and we will return and service your home, free of charge.”
Maintain Landscaping
Keep trees trimmed and make sure they do not overhang the roofline. Also keep all bushes and vegetation trimmed at least 6 inches away from the home.
Seal Cracks & Crevices
Make sure weather stripping on doors and windows is not worn or missing. Seal other openings into the home using caulking.
Use Screen Vents
Install fine-mesh screening across attic vents or baffling or vents that lead to other areas of the home.
