Ant Control in Westminster: what we see locally
In Westminster's large heated buildings, including hotels, hospitals, mansion blocks and offices, the ants we're most often called to are pharaoh ants, which nest inside walls and service voids and need specialist baiting.
Black garden ants also come into garden flats and mews houses in summer. We identify the species first so we use the right treatment.
Pharaoh ants are particularly difficult in hotels and mansion blocks where central heating runs all year. Colonies have many queens and split when disturbed, so a careful baiting plan, ideally covering neighbouring flats or rooms, gives the best result.
Where we find ants in Westminster
- Hotels and hospitals: Pharaoh ants spread through warm buildings.
- Mansion blocks: Service voids let ants travel.
- Garden flats and mews: Garden ants come in from yards.
- Office kitchens: Sugary food attracts ants.
Our ant control service covers the whole of Westminster, including Bayswater, Belgravia, Covent Garden, Maida Vale, Marylebone, Mayfair, Paddington, Pimlico, Soho, St John's Wood, Victoria and Westminster, with same-day or next-day visits.
