Hands down the best pest control company I have used. I’ve had them for 2 years. They spray inside, outside, yard, shed. They do it all. If we ever see an insects before the treatment they come right out, but it is rare we see insects. They respond to emails, phone calls and texts typically with a few hours. Highly recommended!!!

Frequently asked questions

What to Know About Odorous House Ant Control

What should I check when I notice ant activity?

Check for crumbs, spills, pet food, and leaks near the spots where you see ants. Trails along walls or counters can lead toward a food source or a gap. Ask what to watch for after the visit and how to report ongoing activity under your chosen service plan.

Follow the ant trail toward doors, windows, pipes, and the edge of the building. The ants may come from a hidden nest, not the spot where you first see them. Share what you have already tried and where the signs remain before deciding which areas need further attention.

Ants can return if food, water, a nest, or a way inside is still there. Cleaning one spot may clear a trail but leave the source of the problem in place. Confirm the instructions for the visit and ask about any details that are still unclear.

Seal food, wipe up spills, fix leaks, and check gaps near doors or pipes. These steps reduce food and access, but a hidden nest may still need a closer look. Share these details when booking service so the spots with signs can be discussed clearly.

Report where ants travel, what they feed on, and if the trail has moved to a new spot. In October, fall weather can change outdoor spaces, but food and water indoors still matter. Share these details when booking service so the spots with signs can be discussed clearly.

Ask EcoForce for a quote that lists the rooms or outside spaces you want checked at the site. Before you book, ask what the cost includes and which visits or tasks could be extra, so the quote fits the work you need. Confirm the instructions for the visit and ask about any details that are still unclear.

Start with your ZIP code when you ask EcoForce about local service at your home or site. The service markets include San Antonio, Austin, Dallas-Fort Worth, and New Braunfels, but check your address before you book. Make a list of the spots with signs before calling so the discussion covers the full concern from the start.
