Here’s a closer look at the types of ants you may encounter in our area. 

Each type of ant presents unique challenges that require specialized treatment plans that our Oklahoma City Pest Control team is trained to handle. When it comes to ant control, it is important to understand the different types of ants and their behaviors in order to effectively eliminate them from your home or business.

Ants 1
Argentine ants are small but highly aggressive. They invade property in large numbers, especially in search of food and water. They can form super colonies, displacing other ant species and making them particularly difficult to control.
Ants 2
These large, black or reddish brown ants are notorious for damaging wood structures. Unlike termites, carpenter ants don’t eat wood but tunnel into it to create nests, weakening beams, decks, and furniture over time.
Ant
Named for the strong, rotten coconut-like scent they emit when crushed, odorous house ants are often found in areas with sugary foods or waste. Kitchens, sinks, and bathrooms are common hotspots for these ants.
Ant 1
One of the more dangerous species, fire ants are known for their painful stings, which can cause severe allergic reactions. They often build large mounds in open areas, posing risks to children, pets, and anyone nearby.

Pavement ants thrive under sidewalks, driveways, and other concrete surfaces. They frequently make their way indoors, seeking food and leaving behind trails that can quickly worsen an infestation.

Sugar ants are particularly attracted to sweet foods. These tiny ants often infiltrate cupboards and food storage areas, making them a nuisance for homeowners. They are also good at hiding in wall cracks and small crevices.

Our professional exterminators can identify ant species, locate colonies, and assess the extent of the infestation.
