Ant Control in Brisbane, QLD
What is included
What Is Included in Our Ant Control
- The trail followed from where you see the ants back to where they are coming in.
- The species identified, because different ants need different baits, sprays and placement to work.
- Kitchen benches, window frames, power points and bathroom tiles checked for the entry point.
- Outside, paving joints, garden beds, retaining walls and the base of the house checked for nests.
- Bait or treatment placed so the ants carry it back to the nest, not only where they walk.
- A perimeter treatment around the house where the species and the nest location make it worthwhile.
- Advice on what to leave alone, because wiping the trail too soon can stop the bait working.
- Advice on reporting suspected fire ants, which must be reported to Biosecurity Queensland within 24 hours.
Why us
Why Choose Us for Ant Control?
Accountable for every job, long after the day
Every ant control job is done by the people who will still be here next year.
Tested and signed off before we leave
Everything we touch on your ant control is tested before we go, you get walked through exactly what was done.
Local pest controllers, not a call centre
A pest controller answers the phone and the same faces come back if the job runs over a day.
How the job runs
Following the trail back to the nest
The call
Tell us where you are seeing them, how big they are and whether they bite. A trail along the kitchen bench, a pile of soil lifting the pavers and ants coming out of a power point all suggest different species. A photo with a coin beside the ants helps us identify them. If you think they are fire ants, report them to Biosecurity Queensland within 24 hours.
The written quote
You get the scope in writing before work starts: whether we are treating inside, outside or both, where the bait and treatment go, and whether a second visit is planned. If the nest is under a neighbour's yard or a shared path, we tell you what can and cannot be reached from your side.
Treatment day and handover
We follow the trails, place the bait and treat the nest areas we can reach. Before we leave you are asked to keep the trails unwiped for a few days and avoid spraying them, because the ants need to keep carrying the bait home for it to reach the queen.
Common questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Which areas do you cover?
Brisbane, the Gold Coast and surrounding South East Queensland, from our base at Hope Island. Twelve suburbs have their own pages on the service areas page, but they are a starting point rather than a boundary. If you are unsure whether we reach your suburb, call us and we will check.
Do you answer the phone after hours?
Yes. The phone is answered at any hour, every day, on the same number shown at the top of this page. Call with your location and what you are seeing, and we will talk you through what to do next.
Do you work on businesses as well as homes?
Yes. We work in family homes, rentals and apartments, and in shops, offices, food businesses and commercial properties. Commercial visits are set around trading hours, and the treatment details are recorded after each visit.
Can you quote over the phone?
We can often give guidance from a clear description and a few photos. Termite work and more complex problems usually need someone on site before an accurate treatment price is possible, because what is in the roof, the walls or the subfloor decides the scope.
Why do pest control quotes vary so much?
The pest, how established it is, the size of the property, access, the treatment method and any follow-up visits all change the scope and the price. When you compare quotes, compare the areas treated, the method, the preparation and the follow-up that is included. A lower total can simply mean a narrower job.
What details should I give you when I call?
Tell us where and when you saw the pest or the sign of it, and take a clear photo if it is safe to do so. Mention any spray or bait already used, and tell us about children, pets and anyone with allergies in the house. All of that helps us prepare before we arrive.
Should I disturb termites if I find them?
No. Leave the mud leads and damaged timber exactly as they are, do not spray the area, and call us to arrange an inspection. Termites that are disturbed often move away and go quiet, which makes the activity harder to assess and treat.
Can I spray a wasp nest before you arrive?
Please do not approach or disturb an active nest. Keep people and pets away from it and call us for advice that suits where the nest is and how big it has grown.
What should I do after a bite or a bad sting?
Get medical help first, and call for urgent help straight away if someone has trouble breathing or a severe reaction. Dealing with the pest comes after everyone is safe.
What do I need to know about children and pets?
The preparation and re-entry instructions matter, so we go through them with you before we start. Tell us about every animal in the house, including fish and birds, and we will explain what to move, cover or keep away before we start.
What should I keep after a treatment?
Keep the invoice, the treatment details, any safety directions and our recommendations, along with any termite paperwork the job produced. If anything on them is unclear, ask and we will explain it.
Will one treatment keep pests away for good?
No treatment removes every future risk. Long-term protection comes from the right treatment, regular checks and practical changes around the property, such as fixing leaks, clearing garden beds from the walls and sealing the gaps pests use.
Does a clean home still need pest control?
Often, yes. Cleaning removes food, but pests still come in looking for water and shelter. Entry points, moisture and termite risk have nothing to do with how clean the kitchen is.
How often should I have a termite inspection?
It depends on the property and its risk factors, such as its age, construction, garden and history. After an inspection we can recommend a schedule that suits that house rather than a one-size answer.
Will supermarket spray get rid of a nest?
It may kill the insects you can see without reaching the nest or colony they came from. The right response depends on the species and where it is living, which is why identification comes first.
