Targeted Ant Control & Nest Elimination in India
Eradicate red ants, black ants, and carpenter ants. Colony baiting and perimeter barrier sprays for residences, gardens, and offices.
Ants invade kitchens, wall cavities, electrical conduits, and gardens in massive trails, contaminating pantry stocks and damaging wooden fixtures. Safe Home uses attractive protein/carbohydrate bait matrices that worker ants carry deep into subterranean queens' chambers.

Field guide
Know your ants
The ants you see are foragers. The colony is somewhere else — which is why sprays on trails rarely solve the problem.

What to expect
Before and after your ant control visit
A few simple steps make the treatment work better. Your technician will confirm the details for your property.
1 Before we arrive
- Note where the trails start and end.
- Please do not spray the trails yourself before the visit — it scatters the colony.
- Wipe up sweet spills but leave the trails to us.
2 After the treatment
- Leave bait placements where they are.
- You may see more ants near the baits for a short while — that means they are taking it back to the colony.
- Store sweet foods in sealed containers.
- Keep children and pets out of treated areas until your technician says it is safe.
