Pavement ants extermination, indoor or outdoor
Have pavement ants invaded your home or business? These insects reproduce at a very high speed. This is why you must have a professional pavement ant extermination carried out quickly, before several nests form!
In some countries, where medicine is less developed, they can use army ants to close their wounds. Indeed, this species of ants has a particularity, they let go very hardly a hold after a bite. Putting the ants on their wounds to make a stitch-like remedy will help to close the wound.
Methods used for pavement ant extermination
When ants are seen inside your home or business, it is important to detect the location of the nest. To get rid of pavement ants on a long-term basis, the queen, which is the colony’s breeder, must be eliminated. Many baits can be placed on the floors of the house, which the ants will bring back to the other workers as well as to the queen. You can also spread an insecticide on the surfaces at risk.
Nova Extermination’s specialized technicians will solve your problem quickly and durably. We offer this affordable pavement ant extermination service in all cities of the South Shore of Montreal. We have mastered the techniques to exterminate pavement ants, and we use insecticides approved by the Ministry of the Environment to deal with the problem

Here is some information about them:
Black or reddish brown in color, the pavement ant measures between 2.5 to 4 mm, with the exception of the queen which is twice as large. It has grooves on the head as well as on the front of the body.
The queen produces up to 20 eggs per day and a colony can grow up to 5,000 ants.
Pavement ants can be found between cracks in sidewalks and in cracks in asphalt, as well as in rock, dirt or sand. She throws up fine sand when she digs her nest. When the temperature gets colder, settlements take refuge inside heated houses and buildings to find warmth and food. We often find ants in a crack in the concrete of the cellar or garage. These prefer humid places. When it comes to food, pavement ants like sweet or fatty foods, which is why they invade kitchens before returning to their nests.
