Here’s Why You Have a Difficult Time Getting Rid of Ants in Your Home

The reason ants are so hard to get rid of is that the ants you see are only a small part of the colony. The workers on your countertop are out looking for food and water, while the queen and the rest of the nest stay hidden behind wall gaps, under flooring or outside your home.

Wiping the trail or using an off-the-shelf spray only removes the ants in front of you. The nest keeps sending out more, and the trail soon returns.

This is why the treatment method you choose is extremely important. It has to reach the colony at its source, not only the ants you can see.

Common Types of Ants In Singapore

Ghost ants with dark heads and pale bodies - ant control Singapore

Ghost Ants

Ghost ants are tiny, with a dark head and a pale, almost see-through body, which makes them hard to spot on light surfaces. They are among the most common household ants in Singapore.

They are drawn to sweet food and moisture, so they often show up in kitchens and bathrooms.

A colony can have several queens and split into new nests, which is why they keep coming back after a quick spray.

Pharaoh ant close-up - ant control Singapore

Pharaoh Ants

Pharaoh ants are small, yellowish-brown ants that nest in warm, hidden spots such as wall voids and behind cabinets. They feed on sweet, oily and protein-rich food.

When disturbed, a colony can split into several new colonies, so baiting is generally more suitable than spraying alone.

Crazy ants with long legs and antennae - ant control Singapore

Crazy Ants

Crazy ants get their name from their fast, erratic movement instead of a neat trail. They have long legs and antennae.

They nest both indoors and outdoors, and move readily between potted plants, drains and wall gaps.

Our pest superheroes ensure

The Entire Colony Is Eliminated

Ant gel baiting

A spot treatment that lures ants to carry the bait back to the colony, targeting the source of the infestation.

Residual spraying

A treatment that acts as a chemical barrier, killing ants on contact as they cross treated surfaces.

Both treatments are carried out after a full inspection of your premises.

01

Ant Inspection

The first stage is finding the root cause: where the ants are nesting, what is attracting them and how they are entering your premises.

02

Residual Spraying

A residual spray is applied along trails, entry points and potential breeding areas. It acts as a chemical barrier, killing ants on contact.

03

Ant Gel Baiting

Gel bait is placed as a spot treatment near active trails. Instead of killing the ants immediately, it lures them to bring the bait back to the colony.

This targets the source of the infestation, including the ants you never see.

04

Follow-Up Visit

If there is a pest reoccurrence within the warranty period, we make one free trip down to treat the area again.

FAQ

Ants In Singapore: Answers Before You Ask

What types of ants are common in Singapore homes?

Three types of ants turn up most often in Singapore homes and offices.

Ant typeWhat to know
Ghost antsTiny, with a dark head and a pale body. Drawn to sweet food and moisture, so they are common in kitchens and bathrooms.
Pharaoh antsSmall and yellowish-brown. They nest in warm, hidden spots such as wall voids and behind cabinets.
Crazy antsLong-legged ants that move fast and erratically. They nest both indoors and outdoors.

White ants are not ants. They are termites, which damage wood. See our termite control page.

What are the signs of an ant infestation?

Look out for these signs of ant infestation at your premises.

SignWhat to look for
Ant trailsSteady trails of ants to food and water
DebrisSmall piles of debris near wall gaps
Gathering spotsAnts gathering around sinks, bins and pet food bowls
FoodLive ants inside food packaging or cupboards
Entry pointsAnts coming out of power sockets, tile gaps or window frames
Winged antsWinged ants indoors, a sign of a mature colony nearby

Why do ants keep coming back?

Because the nest is still active. The ants you see are workers looking for food and water, while the queen and the rest of the colony stay hidden.

Wiping the trail or spraying the ants in front of you does not reach the nest, so it keeps sending out more. A lasting fix has to target the colony at its source.

How do I prevent an ant infestation?

Preventing ant infestations comes down to five precautions.

PrecautionWhat to do
Water sourcesRepair leaking taps and pipes, and wipe sinks and counters dry.
Plants and gardenTrim plants and branches that touch your walls or windows.
Food storageKeep food, including pet food, in sealed containers and wipe up crumbs and spills right away.
Entry pointsSeal cracks and gaps around windows, doors, pipes and power sockets.
RubbishEmpty bins regularly and keep bin lids closed.

Is gel baiting or residual spraying better for ants?

They do different jobs. Residual spraying acts as a chemical barrier and kills ants on contact. Gel baiting is a spot treatment that lures ants to bring the bait back to the colony, which targets the source of the infestation.

After the inspection, we will advise which method, or a combination of both, suits your premises.

How much does an ant inspection cost?

The inspection is complimentary. There are no obligations and no costs involved before proceeding to fix any pest issues.

After the inspection, you get a fair quotation of the suitable treatment method for your pest issue.

Are the chemical solutions that we use 100% safe?

Yes! Our chemical solutions (e.g. residual spraying) are eco-friendly, and are tested and certified.

For stronger solutions, our team will advise you to leave the room for a short time period before resuming your daily activities.
