🐜 Ant Control

Effective Ant Control, Done Properly, Not Just Sprayed

Ants are one of the most common pest issues in Queensland homes.
They may seem harmless at first, but once a colony establishes itself, ants can be difficult to eliminate without the right approach.

At Under One Roof, ant control is handled personally by me, Alastair.
With over 30 years’ experience in construction and years working hands-on as a licensed pest technician, I understand not just how ants behave, but why they enter homes and how to stop them properly.

Why Ant Problems Keep Returning

Most DIY sprays and surface treatments only kill the ants you can see.
They don’t eliminate the nest, which is why the problem keeps coming back.

Ant infestations are usually driven by:

  • Moisture around kitchens, bathrooms, or external walls

  • Food sources inside the home

  • Gaps, cracks, or access points in the structure

  • Nesting sites in soil, paving, gardens, or wall cavities

Effective ant control requires identifying the species, locating the nest, and treating the source, not just the trail.

How I Treat Ant Infestations

Every treatment is tailored to the property and ant species involved.

  1. Inspection & Identification
    I identify the ant species, nesting areas, and entry points.

  2. Targeted Treatment
    Professional-grade baits and residual treatments are applied where ants live and travel, not unnecessarily throughout the home.

  3. Nest Elimination
    Where possible, nests are treated directly to stop the infestation at its source.

  4. Prevention Advice
    I’ll explain what attracted the ants and how to reduce the risk of re-infestation.

No blanket spraying. No guesswork. Just effective, targeted treatment.

Safe for Families & Pets

All ant treatments use low-toxicity, Australian-approved products that are safe when applied correctly.
I apply treatments precisely and explain any precautions clearly before work begins.

If you have children, pets, or specific concerns, those are always taken into account.
