Ants are Coming Home

Wednesday, 13th July 2011

While winter may bring the cold weather, it is also one of the few times of year that your home is free of pests. Ants always seem to disappear right around the winter months, giving you a few month respite from their irritating invasions.

Yet every spring and summer, they seem to come back, requiring an effective ant control solution to keep them away from your home. Where do they go during this time, and why is it that they only enter your home during the warmer months?

When the weather gets colder, ants go deeper in the earth, making their way below the frost line. They take all of the food that they have stored up and eat all of that throughout the cold months. Then, when the weather warms up, they head up back to their homes seeking food. It is then that they start to invade your home, hoping to find new food sources that they can use to feed their colony and stock up for the next winter.

When the weather warms up, it is a good idea to seek out an ant control option from Connor’s Best. The ants will be coming home again, looking for food.
