downstairs hallway walls. The homeowner knew this was a little Black ant

the Greenlake homeowner called AMPM Exterminators for a professional

times. But do not underestimate the little pests. Armies of Ants will find
ways to get into a home or other residences. Like the apartment building in
Magnolia. Also don’t forget that little Black ants populate rapidly and are
constantly marching. A favorite place to set up camp are in the walls.

of the home is probable. The ants are able to move the scent highway to a
different location very easily. Little Black ants can travel up trees that

time in making an appointment with AMPM Exterminators to ambush the little

leaks in need of repair. The owner was referred to AMPM Exterminators by
