❝Very Professional❞
★★★★★ - "I found them in Home Advisor around one in the morning. There is a reason they call themselves Service First. They called me at 8:30am and Jared was out there by 9:45am. He was very professional, gave me the cost and got to work with the invisible pests and the ones I could see. I only wish he had the cure for love bug season because the seem to be most attracted to my house (haha). He is even on the board for P.A.W.S. and assured me what he sprayed down would not hurt my puppies in any way. AMAZING! I highly recommend Jared and Service First!"

Ant Extermination by Service First Termite and Pest Prevention LLC
It is usually in the spring when they are looking to build nests and mate. Often, they gain entry via tree branches or shrubs that touch the walls or roof of your home. They travel along well-established trails such as garden hoses laying on the ground, the edges of walls or boards, and within the walls of your home along electric wires or pipes. Once inside, they look for voids to build their nests. Common spaces include hollow doors, wall voids, or spaces between insulation and flooring in a crawl space. If they don't find an existing void, they create their own. Some species of ants are nocturnal insects, such as carpenter ants which usually do most of their work outside their colony at night. Carpenter ants require a constant water source to live.
Why Ant Extermination is Important
Carpenter ants excavate wood to build their nests. They start by using their strong jaws to bite off tiny pieces of wood until a chamber is formed. Once the chamber is formed, they create smooth tunnels called galleries. However, they don't actually eat the wood. They just chew off pieces of it to expand a chamber or make their tunnels. Because the pieces of wood are so small, they look like sawdust particles. This sawdust-like debris is called "Frass." Carpenter ants like to keep things neat while they're working. As carpenter ants enlarge their nest, they periodically chew a hole to the outside to push all the frass out of the cavity. Frass is a telltale sign of a carpenter ant infestation.
