The Life Cycle Of Common Ants
All ants start as eggs. Ants will establish a colony first, part of which houses ant eggs. Upon hatching, ants appear in the form of larvae. They then soon move into what is known as the pupal stage. The last stage for an ant is the move into full adulthood. From start to finish, it takes three months for ant eggs to turn into ant adults, with many reaching that goal in only two.

Ruined food: Ants don't just eat your food; they take a stroll on it.
Allergies: Ants are well known for triggering allergies.
Home damage: Ants can block ducts and cause shorts in electrical equipment.

Why Do-It-Yourself Ant Control Often Fails
Ant control in Edisto Island can be surprisingly challenging. Ants tend to migrate out from hidden, centrally located colonies. DIY pest control may work on ants in the area you use it in, but it will miss ants in other locations, and the colony will remain hidden. Ants exploring your house can be a recurring problem, often returning to your home. Many homeowners that seek professional help do so after trying DIY methods — and failing — several times. These homeowners frequently express that they should have utilized professional pest control first.
