Carpenter ant/bee nest removal

My wife and I are extremely happy with Joe's work. A couple of years ago we were noticing bees swarming around the yard and we called Joe to help us out. He immediately located the nest and applied a dust treatment. His job was very thorough and we was sure to dust around the nest area for extra insurance also. We saw results quickly and were never bothered again. Unfortunately, we were also invaded with Carpenter ants this spring. I called Joe right away and he did his best to book us quickly. I do appreciate that he educated us well on these creatures and their behaviours so that we would know what to do and look for until he came to our site. Joe definitely goes the extra mile. He came one night prior to our appointment day with a flash light and tracked down the main nest outside. He went around the whole property and scanned neighbouring properties from our balcony also. We were so happy because we could see a bunch of activity but could not track the root. Joe is amazing and is so good at what he does. He knows exactly what to look for and tracked down that problem to the source. Then he came and did a full spray treatment around our house due to the situation and because of the potential cause of other nests from surrounding properties. We are so thankful that Joe did such a good and thorough job for us again! We would not hesitate to call Joe for any of his services. He is honest, works hard and really wants to help you, to solve the problem from the root source!

Company Response

I had to visit the home a few times in the evening hours to finally see the ant movements and locate the nest. Turns out the home was being invaded on all sides by one particular nest at the base of a large maple tree. I used termite rods to treat the nest all along the base and the garage studs. Saturated with a chemical pheromone used by the carpenter ants themselves all the wood was treated as a precautionary measure. Remember, ant pheromones are so persistent they can linger on for years through rain, sleet, snow and ice. Removal of these pheromones is necessary or else carpenter ants simply re-follow these trails at a later date.I am glad that it all worked out.Joe
