Why do ants need controlling?
Ants infestations in the kitchen where food is served or prepared present a health hazard, often getting into containers and contaminating food and preparation surfaces in their efforts to find food and take it back to the nest. Therefore ants in the house should not be tolerated.
In commercial kitchens, or public eating areas, ant infestations can be disasterous for hygiene and reputation, especially if they decide to swarm at the wrong time. It makes sense to control these pests properly in sensitive environments.
How are ants controlled?
The treatment of ants depends on the correct identification of the problem ant.
The most common ant in the UK is the Black Ant which can be treated with barrier sprays to stop them getting in or insecticidal gels which, although slow in action, will completely eradicate a nest.
A survey of the ant problem to identify the ants present, and the building layout will determine which method will be most likely to succeed.
Ant biology
Ant biology differs between species, so here is a brief outline of Black Ant biology.
Black Ant colonies are started when a queen containing fertile eggs finds a suitable place to start a colony.
She lays her eggs, and once they hatch, the queen tends the larvae, feeding them on secretions from her salivary glands. The larvae pupate and all become workers. These workers then clean and maintain the nest area and bring food to the nest. This is when you may notice lines of ants marching to and from a source of food. This is when you might notice ants in house, or on the patio. They might also be found on food in the kitchen.
Ants feed on carrion they find when foraging, they also "farm" aphids for the sugary secretions they produce.
In summer, male and female ants are produced by the nest. They emerge on sultry summer days, flying away to mate. The males die, but the females are now the new queens, who start new colonies. This is ants swarming, and sometimes this will happen suddenly indoors, when thousands of flying ants will appear trying to get out.
