However, there are easy things you can do and that’s to look at your surrounding area for tell-tale signs:
Live ants
If you are seeing massive numbers of live ants you might well have an issue. If you locate them in your kitchen or in areas where you prepare food, then you definitely have to do something about it quickly. Ant pathways – in and out of your property or premises are another sign. Some varieties of ants will lay down a pheromone path to a food source. This compound attracts different ants to find food.
Ant Nest
Ants can live anywhere whether indoors or outdoors, but the majority of them have nests outside. On top of their nests are a little pile of dirt surrounding it. For Bull snakes, they mostly reside in hollow tree trunks, rotten logs and burrowed in bushy areas. Though some species of ant have homes in dark places which are more difficult to spot.
Occasionally, there are cases where ants can come in and out of your area. They’re attracted to sweet and sticky food that is why it is important to maintain your area mess-free. As a preventive measure, here are a few ways where you can control ants from gaining entrance at your home.
You can also help prevent rodents entering your home by sealing access points such as cracks and crevices in the doorway and window frames.

What should I do if I accidentally touch any of the areas that have been sprayed?
This will only be a concern if the sprayed areas are still wet. Should this happen, wash with soap and lots of water as soon as you possibly can. After a relatively short period of time, the carrier, tap water will have evaporated and will not harm you in any way should you come into contact with the area.
Will the gel that you use on the inside of my cupboards cause any contamination to the food inside?
We apply the gel only to places within the cupboard where insects are found. This means it will only be applied to cracks, crevices, and hinges.
Am I likely to see the return of pests after the treatment?
It is possible that insects such as ants, spiders or cockroaches may venture inside your property after the treatment has been completed. However, there is a very high likelihood that they will have crossed treated areas and will die very soon afterward.
