Ant Control Melbourne: Expert Tips to Keep Ants Out of Your Home [2024 Guide]
Dealing with ant infestations in Melbourne homes can be frustrating, especially during the warmer months. As your local pest control experts serving areas from Brighton to Werribee, we've compiled this comprehensive guide to help you effectively manage and prevent ant problems.
Common Ant Species in Melbourne Homes
Melbourne properties frequently encounter these ant species:
- Coastal Brown Ants
- Argentine Ants

Signs of an Ant Infestation
Early detection is crucial for effective ant control. Watch for:
- Visible ant trails in your kitchen or bathroom
- Small piles of dirt near walls or skirting boards
- Damaged wood or insulation
- Ant nests in your garden or near foundation
Prevention Tips for Melbourne Homes
Just like our approach to spider control, prevention is key for ant management:
- Seal entry points around windows and doors
- Keep food in airtight containers
- Clean spills immediately
- Maintain a dry environment, especially in bathrooms and kitchens
