The Enemy
Your home is valuable and keeping its property value as high as it can is important. There are many things that can harm the value of your property, and carpenter ants are one of them! These creatures are a common household pet that demands serious attention and treatment. Think of them as the enemy, little warriors trying to destroy your home, and take it as their own.

We have many years of experience and are particularly keen on assisting fellow Ottawa citizens with carpenter ant problems because we know just how awful they can be.
Signs of Infestation
Carpenter ants are larger winged ants that like to build nests and tear through wood. The do not like dry wood but rather prefer to nest and eat through moist wood that has already decayed. Keep that in mind when trying to see if you can find signs of carpenter ant infestation. These ants can be found in and around wooden areas, and enter through vents, cracks, wiring, pipes, telephone lines, etc.
Of course, seeing them in the home is a good sign that there might be an infestation, however, simply seeing them does not guarantee that a colony has been formed. Ants can and will go long distances from their nests to find food. If it is a severe infestation you will see piles of wood shaving in and around wooden objects.
Carpenter ants burrow into wood to create nests and you can sometimes hear faint rustling noises in and around woodwork. If you see large winged ants coming from the ceilings, walls, and other tiny hidden cracks and openings then it is very likely that you have an infestation problem.
