Where Did These Flying Ants Come From?
Flying ants are gearing up to invade New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and the Eastern Shore of Maryland in the coming months. These winged pests, also known as "swarmers," will soon take to the skies, mate, and establish new colonies ruled by a single queen. Their arrival means more than just an annoyance—it’s the beginning of a cycle that could lead to serious infestations. Picture your backyard overrun with swarms of flying ants disrupting your peace and threatening your property. The time to act is now.
Viking Pest Control advises taking proactive measures before millions of swarmers emerge and transform your property into an ant stronghold. Our treatments, safe for families and pets, are designed to halt reproduction and colony formation, keeping your home and yard secure. We also meticulously inspect your home’s exterior to identify and seal potential entry points for ants and other pests.
Swarmers can appear anytime from early spring to late summer. Once a male and female flying ant mate, the male dies, and the female establishes a new colony, shedding her wings to become its queen. Don’t let these pests take root on your property. Call Viking Pest Control today and stop ant problems before they start.
Flying Ants in the Mid-Atlantic including carpenter ants, odorous house ants, and more develop wings for their annual swarming season. Spotting a swarm of these pests hovering over your property is a warning sign—a precursor to potential infestations that can wreak havoc on your home and yard.
Carpenter Ants: A Hidden Danger Carpenter ants are one of the most destructive ant species in the Mid-Atlantic. Unlike termites, they don’t eat wood, but they burrow through it to create nests, which can compromise the structural integrity of your home over time. These ants are often drawn to moisture-damaged wood and can quickly expand their colonies if left unchecked. Viking Pest Control utilizes specialized treatments to target carpenter ant nests, eliminating them at the source and preventing further damage to your property. Our comprehensive approach includes identifying areas of vulnerability and implementing solutions to keep carpenter ants out for good.
