Although most ant invasions will occur in the summer months, you may be eerily surprised to find a swarm in your ho
me in late winter. More than an occasional home owner has had this unpleasant experience.
Trying to discourage ants from invading your home can be frustrating. Proper food storage and waste management will reduce the food that often attracts workers indoors.
Clean all kitchen surfaces, vacuum daily, and rinse recyclable containers before throwing them in the recycle bin.
Ants are social insects and are divided up into three castes: workers, males, and queens. Get the workers and the food source is greatly stopped.
