Ants - Fying Ants in Manchester, Lancashire, Merseyside & Cheshire


Harrier Pest Prevention specialise in the treatment of ants and flying ants throughout Manchester, Cheshire & Lancashire.

Only people who have suffered the trauma of a summer flying ant infestation inside their homes know the true horror of an ant infestation.

Black or Garden ants are commonly found throughout the UK, and although they nest outdoors, they are often found inside houses, causing a nuisance more than anything.

They are social creatures, and live in colonies containing workers (infertile females), males, queens and grubs (larvae). Ants mate on the wing so the 'flying ants' which are often mistaken for flies are either males or immature queens.

Unfortunately, when ants choose to nest under the floors of houses, they can become a major and distressing pest especially when in the mating phase when many thousands of flying ants can be discharged from the nest into your home etc.

Getting rid of an ant infestation can be extremely difficult as it is necessary to destroy the nest which otherwise can continue for many years.

Treating an ant infestation with amateur use powders and gels is doomed to failure.

The gels and baits cannot possibly work on flying ants as they do not return to the nest.
 
The most successful method of curing an ant infestation is to drill holes into the cavity walls of the property from the outside and inject insecticidal dust into the cavity itself.
This forms an impenetratable barrier, which the ants cannot cross, and is 99.9% successful in removing ant infestations. Although the treatment is more expensive, it lasts for several years depending on how dry the cavities are and has the benefit that once the holes are drilled it is a simple and relatively matter to re-inject the cavities with insecticidal dust every few years.

Harrier Pest Prevention guarantees the treatment for three years, extendable in further three year terms by low cost retreatment of the wall cavities.
