Effective Ant Removal Services Across Scunthorpe And North Lincolnshire
Ants might not be considered as much of a public health issue as other insect pests, but they can still cause problems for homeowners and business leaders.
That’s because ants are always searching for food, and once they find food, literally hundreds of ants will be seen gathering the food and returning it to the nest.
This can lead to an ant infestation, which can be unsightly and make your space feel unhygienic.
For businesses, ants roaming around can put customers off and potentially cause issues with your local health inspector, particularly if you serve food.
Thankfully, Briarquest Pest Control is here to help. Our professional team can quickly carry out ant pest control services that will remove these irritating bugs.
We also have the skills needed to get rid of other insect pests, including bed bugs, cluster flies, fleas, cockroaches and more.

Signs Of An Ant Infestation
Ants are a common occurrence in gardens throughout Scunthorpe, Grimsby, Hull and the surrounding area. As such, you might not notice them or think there’s anything wrong with seeing a few ants. However, signs of an ant problem include:
- Ant Trails: One or two ants isn’t usually a cause for concern, but if you notice a line of ants walking in the same direction towards your property, this is a sign that you have an ant problem.
- Ant Nests: Ant nests look like small piles of dirt, and are often found just outside your home, or sometimes even indoors.
- Discarded Wings: In the spring and summer, sexually mature black ants become flying ants, and will shed them again when they join a new colony or once the mating season is over. As such, you might find discarded wings on your window sill or throughout your home.
If you notice any of these signs of ant activity, then call 01724 376330. Our team can work quickly to remove the ants and allow you to enjoy a pest-free space.
The Importance Of Professional Ant Pest Control
There are three main species of ants in the UK: Black Ants, Red Ants, and Pharaoh Ants. Pharaoh ants are the most difficult to deal with, as if the nest is disturbed, the colony will quickly disperse and throw off several queens.
As such, if you aren’t effective in killing them the first time, then you could find yourself dealing with a much bigger issue in the future.
Therefore, if you notice signs of an ant infestation, it pays to be proactive. DIY ant control products are ineffective and can be toxic to children or pets.
