Ants in the House? We Handle It the Same Day.

Quick service, text-first access, and treatments designed to last, starting at $49/mo

Dealing with ants invading your home? Your home gets treated inside and out using EPA-registered products, and if they come back between visits, so do we — at no extra charge.

Our Process

Our Process for Practical Ant Control and Protection

Simple. Thorough. Every Time.

Your technician treats your home from the outside in. Service starts with a thorough inspection of your home, checking foundation areas and crawlspaces to find exactly where the colony is entering.

Your technician then applies targeted treatments to active trails and common entry points. For example, along baseboards and around exterior window frames. The focus is on exterior prevention, which stops the current infestation and creates a lasting barrier around your foundation.

The ant control process can account for carpenter ants, pavement ants, and colony baiting or exterior perimeter treatment when activity patterns call for it.

The Tri-Annual Story

Fewer Visits. Better Products. Longer Protection.

Fewer, better applications designed for longer-lasting results

Tri-Annual Service

Our plans include service three times a year, every four months. Products are selected to last the full cycle, so pests can't build resistance and your home gets less exposure overall.

Longer-Lasting Products

Our products are designed to keep working long after we leave. No drop-off between visits, just consistent protection month after month.

Product Rotation

Pests can develop resistance to repeated applications of the same active ingredient. We rotate active ingredients between visits so pests can't build resistance. Resistance prevention is built into every plan, not an afterthought.

I recently had quarterly pest and annual termite services completed, and Scott provided top-notch service. Scott is clearly a seasoned professional with years of experience who takes pride in his work. He didn’t rush through the service; instead, he was attentive to every detail and made sure all my questions were fully answered. What really stood out was how proactive he was: he took the time to point out specific outdoor conditions that could attract pests and gave actionable advice on how to prevent potential issues before they start. On top of his expertise, Scott is extremely pleasant, approachable, and personable. It’s rare to find service that is both exceptionally thorough and genuinely friendly. Highly recommend Sage and technician Scott.
