Margate's irrigated landscaping and canal banks are prime ant habitat. White-footed ants and ghost ants trail into villas and condos along stucco walls, around windows and through tiny gaps at plumbing and electrical lines. In attached villas, ants travel between units through shared walls, so a trail in your kitchen may start next door or in the planting bed outside. Big-headed ants nest under walkways, patios and pool decks and push soil up through cracks.
On canal lots, fire ants build mounds along the bank and in the lawn, and Florida carpenter ants nest in palms and trees near the water and forage indoors at night. Heavy summer rain floods nests and drives colonies inside quickly. In the older neighborhoods, cracked driveways and settled slabs give ants easy entry. Older block homes in the neighborhoods off Margate Boulevard and Atlantic Boulevard also have gaps around windows, AC lines and plumbing where ants trail in.

How We Treat It
Villas get trail baits and shared-wall treatment. Canal lots get bank mound treatment and slab-edge treatment. In Margate villas, ant trails often start in the planting bed outside and run along the shared wall, so we bait both sides of that path and treat the bed itself. On canal lots, fire ant mounds along the bank get treated directly, and we check the palms near the water for carpenter ants. Cracked courtyard walkways between villas get big-headed ant treatment, and older block homes off Margate Boulevard get gaps around windows and AC lines treated. Lanai planters too.
Villas and Shared Walls
In attached villas, we bait inside where trails appear, treat entry points along the shared wall and treat the planting beds outside your unit. If several units have ants, we'll suggest the association treat common landscaping too. Many villa communities have small shared courtyards and walkways between buildings, and cracks in those slabs are a favorite big-headed ant nesting spot. We treat the sections next to your unit. Patios are checked too.
Canal Banks and Rain
Ant calls climb with the rainy season, when storms flood nests along canal banks and in mulch. Fire ant mounds show up along the waterline after rain. Don't disturb them; let us treat them. Keep mulch thin and off the slab, trim shrubs away from walls, fix leaks under sinks and call us before spraying a trail, since spray can split the colony into more nests. If you're away for part of the year, schedule a visit before you leave, since colonies can grow unnoticed in an empty unit.
What to Expect on Your First Visit
We identify the ant and treat trails and mounds. Canal lots get the bank checked for mounds, and villas get the shared wall traced.
