Carpenter ants

At On Your Mark Pest Control, our exterior carpenter ant treatment is designed to eliminate colonies at the source and protect your home or cottage from structural damage. Carpenter ants tunnel through wood to build their nests, often targeting damp or weathered areas around decks, window frames, soffits, and foundation walls. Our service focuses on a thorough exterior inspection to identify nesting sites, moisture issues, and high-activity zones. We then apply a professional-grade residual treatment to key entry points and foraging trails, creating a protective barrier that stops ants before they move indoors. By addressing both active colonies and conducive conditions outside, we help prevent long-term damage and reduce the risk of recurring infestations — especially in wooded and lakeside environments where carpenter ants thrive.

Non wood boring ants

At On Your Mark Pest Control, our exterior treatment for non–wood boring ants targets nuisance species that invade homes and cottages in search of food and moisture. Unlike carpenter ants, these ants nest in soil, under stones, along foundations, beneath patios, and in landscaping features before trailing indoors through small cracks and gaps. Our service begins with a thorough exterior inspection to identify nesting areas, foraging trails, and entry points. We then apply a professional-grade residual barrier around the foundation, doorways, window frames, and other high-activity zones to eliminate active colonies and disrupt future movement toward the structure. By focusing on outdoor control and prevention, we help stop ant problems at the source and keep your living spaces clean and protected.
