How do I know I have carpenter ants and not termites?

Carpenter ants are large, dark ants that push out coarse sawdust-like shavings (not the pellet frass of termites) and are most active at night. They excavate wood to nest rather than eat it. If you see big ants indoors in Rochester Hills, especially near damp wood, it is worth an inspection.

Where do carpenter ants nest in Rochester Hills homes?

They favor damp or aging wood — around leaky windows and roofs, in decks and porches, in wall voids near plumbing, and in older shoreline and wooded-lot structures common in Oakland County. Treating the nest and fixing the moisture source is what keeps them from returning.

Do you offer a guarantee?

Yes. Recurring plans carry our Worry-Free Guarantee — if the ants return between visits, we come back and re-treat at no additional charge.
