Frequently Asked Questions
Why do ants keep returning to my kitchen?
Ants communicate through persistent pheromone scent trails. When scout ants discover food particles, grease, or moisture, they lay down chemical trails that recruit thousands of nestmates. Simply wiping the surface often leaves scent trails intact or ignores hidden colonies inside wall voids.
How much does ant control cost in Bangalore?
Ant control at SLV Pest Control starts from ₹499. The exact cost depends on property dimensions (1 BHK, 2 BHK, 3 BHK, villa, or commercial pantry), colony extent, and whether outdoor nesting perimeters require barrier management.
Why do store-bought sprays fail to eliminate ants?
Aerosol sprays only kill the small percentage of foraging worker ants on the surface. Sprays can cause colony "budding", prompting the queen to fragment the colony into multiple new nesting sites inside your walls.
How does SLV Pest Control treat ant infestations?
We implement a systematic 4-stage Integrated Pest Management protocol: thorough nesting inspection, colony assessment, targeted professional gel baiting that foraging workers carry back to eliminate the queen and nest, supplemented by perimeter barrier applications where appropriate.
