Why Ant Pest Control Is Important In Perth Homes
Ants can multiply quickly and establish multiple nests, which is why DIY sprays often provide only short-term relief. Beyond being a nuisance, ants can contaminate food preparation areas, invade pantries, damage lawns and paving by nesting underneath, and some species can bite or sting. Professional ant pest control focuses on identifying the species, tracking pheromone trails, locating nest sites, and using the right treatment method to eliminate the colony and reduce the risk of recurring infestations.

Our Ant Pest Control Process
Inspection & Identification
We map trails, entry points, moisture issues, and food sources to identify the species and likely nest locations.
Targeted Colony Elimination
Based on the species and site, we use a strategic combination of baits, non-repellent sprays, dusts, and perimeter barriers designed to reach the nest and eliminate the colony.
Sanitation & Proofing Tips
We provide practical steps to reduce attraction—food storage, bin management, sealing tiny gaps, and garden adjustments to limit nesting sites.
Types Of Ants We Treat In Perth
Different ant species behave differently, which is why correct identification and treatment selection matters. Below are some of the most common ants we treat in Perth homes and businesses:
Black house ants
Black house ants are one of the most common ants found around Perth homes. They typically nest outdoors but will travel inside in search of food, following visible trails along walls, benches, and skirting boards.
Argentine ants
These ants are known for forming very large colonies with multiple nests, which makes them difficult to control using store-bought sprays. They are commonly attracted to sweet foods and often invade kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor entertaining areas, especially during warmer months.
Coastal brown ants
Coastal brown ants usually nest in garden beds, lawns, and under paving, where they can undermine soil and cause movement in pavers or edging. Their large colonies often require targeted baiting to eliminate the nest rather than surface spraying.
Bulldog ants
Bulldog ants are large, aggressive ants that are most commonly found outdoors in soil, gardens, and around landscaping. Their painful sting makes them a safety concern, particularly for children and pets, and professional treatment is recommended to reduce risk.
White-footed house ants
These ants often nest in wall cavities, roof voids, and tree hollows, making them harder to access. They can spread quickly through a property and usually need a combination of baiting and barrier treatments for effective control.
Ghost ants
Ghost ants are very small and can appear suddenly in large numbers inside homes. They are attracted to moisture and sweet foods and often require specialised baiting programs to prevent recurring infestations.
Pavement ants
Pavement ants commonly nest under concrete slabs, driveways, paths, and pavers, where they exploit cracks and joints to enter buildings. They are attracted to both sweet and greasy foods and can be persistent once established, often requiring targeted baiting to eliminate the nest beneath hard surfaces.
Ant Pest Control FAQs

How much does ant pest control cost in Perth?
City & Inland Pest Control provide black ant removal from $220.00. The total cost depends on the number of nests, access difficulty, and overall infestation level. All pricing is confirmed before we start treatment.
+
Is the ant pest control treatment safe for my family and pets?
Yes. Our technicians use targeted, low-odour, and non-repellent products approved for residential use. We’ll let you know if any short re-entry time is needed after treatment.
+
How long does it take to see results?

+
Will one visit be enough to remove ants?
Most infestations are resolved with a single visit. Severe or multi-nest infestations may require follow-up or seasonal maintenance for long-term control. Your technician will advise the best plan after inspection.
+
What should I do before and after ant treatment?
Before treatment, remove pet bowls, secure food, and wipe benches. After treatment, avoid cleaning treated surfaces for at least 24 hours to allow the product to work through the colony effectively.
