Ant Control in San Diego County
Professional ant control for Argentine ants, carpenter ants, fire ants and other common Southern California species.
What you're dealing with
Ants frequently enter homes and businesses looking for food, water, shelter or relief from outdoor temperatures. A few visible ants may be scouts leading the colony toward an available resource.
How to tell if you have a problem
- Visible trails along walls, countertops, and window sills
- Small piles of dirt or sand near cracks — nest entrances
- Ants swarming pet food bowls or pantry items
- Sudden trails appearing after weather changes
- Ants gathering in bathrooms and near water sources

Common questions about ant control in san diego county
Why do ants keep coming back after I spray?
Sprays only kill the ants you can see. The colony — which can have thousands of workers and multiple queens — remains underground or inside walls. Professional treatment targets the colony and the trails ants use to reach food sources.
What types of ants are common in San Diego County?
Argentine ants are the most common nuisance ant in San Diego County. We also treat carpenter ants, fire ants, odorous house ants, and pavement ants. Each species requires a different treatment approach.
Do you treat ant problems in yards and gardens?
Yes. We treat interior and exterior ant problems for homes and businesses across San Diego County, including kitchens, yards, patios, and perimeter areas.
