Ant Control in Newham: what we see locally
Black garden ants nest in back gardens, yards and the gaps between paving, and come into kitchens in summer. Newham's terraced houses with rear kitchen extensions are often affected.
In heated buildings, including tower blocks, hospitals and new developments, we also find pharaoh ants, which nest indoors and need specialist baiting. We identify the species first, then use baits the ants carry back to the nest.
On flying ant days in July, the small paved gardens behind Newham's terraces often reveal colonies under the back step or along the extension wall. If ants appear in the same spot every summer, the nest is close by.
Where we find ants in Newham
- Kitchen extensions: Ants enter where extensions meet the house.
