Homes and businesses across Harlow — a large Essex new town built from the late 1940s onwards, with distinct residential neighbourhoods, tower blocks, low-rise estates and extensive green space — can run into problems with ants just like anywhere in Hertfordshire. The short answer is that DIY products can sometimes help with very minor, early-stage problems, but they rarely deal with the source of a genuine infestation.
What Actually Works
The short answer is that DIY products can sometimes help with very minor, early-stage problems, but they rarely deal with the source of a genuine infestation.
Our treatments are designed to target the source of the infestation wherever practical, rather than just the ants you can see on the surface.
Signs to Look Out For
Simply killing visible ants often doesn't solve the underlying problem because the colony remains active.
In Harlow specifically, we'd also encourage you to think about the age and construction of your property — older buildings with original brickwork and timber tend to offer more potential access points than newer, tightly-built homes.
