Understanding Ants in Kitchen: Identify Species Before You Spray
Tiny brown ants at counter (odorous house ants), large black ants (carpenter ants seeking moisture), or pavement ants from foundation cracks. Each species requires different bait strategies—spraying without identifying = colony just moves to another room.
Effective pest control starts with accurate identification. Different pests require different treatment approaches, and using the wrong method can make the problem worse or create health risks for your family and pets.
