If 2012 is anything like 2011…as far as pest control…..we should be busy as ever with ants, spiders, box elder bugs, fleas, hornets, rodents and bedbugs.
We typically get alot of ant calls in the Spring, Summer and Fall. Not many in the Winter months. Spiders come on strong in summer. Box Elders are Spring and Fall pests. Fleas and bedbugs can be a year round pest control problem. Hornets are a late summer pest problem. Rodents are usually a Fall pest control problem.
If you live in the Portland, Oregon, Vancouver, Washington area and pests are bothering you……call us here at All About Ants Pest Control. We guarantee all of our work… typically with a no hassle, one time pest control treatment.
We don’t see too many of these furry little ants in the Portland, Vancouver area pest control business…..Thanks for that because this dudes sting is so harsh they named it “Cow Killer”.

Getting a drink
Ants in Portland don’t need to worry much about moisture……there is plenty of that this time of year.
If you have tried other Portland Pest Control Companies and still have ants……Call US!
Found a great Portland band called “Ants In The Kitchen”. These guys are tight! Went and saw them last night at the Prairie Bar & Grill in Brush Prairie, WA. Had a great time! If you like classic rock…you’ll love these guys. Check them out at http://www.antsinthekitchenband.com …….If you see these Ants In The Kitchen….call me because I want to come join the party!
Ok folks….cooler temperatures and rain means Fall is upon us. The cool temps are a double edge sword. Yes….insects become less active outside but when ants become entrenched in the home…. they can be more difficult to control. There are a couple reasons for this. One is since they are less active outside….it reduces the effectiveness of the treatment outside. If fewer ants come into contact with the treatment….it can take longer for treatment to take full effect. Two….the treatment itself is actually effected by the cold. It kinda becomes less sticky to the ant. We want the ant to pick up enough of the treatment to share with the nest mates.
I think the point here is… don’t wait until Winter if you are having an ant problem or it may be a long Winter.
Most other pests here actually become a bit less of a problem except…..Rodents! Rodents have been busy reproducing during the warm months. As things cool off they start to look for a warm place to hold up. The good news is YOU can go a long way on your own in dealing with Rodents. Sealing up your crawlspace, making sure all of your doors close correctly…including garage doors. If you can see light coming through the bottom of your door…..it’s not sealing correctly and you may get visitors. If this happens…….you can call us because we also take care of your Rodent problems.
I was turned on to these guys by one of my Facebook friends. Their name caught my attention so I went to their website at http://www.antsinthekitchenband.com/.
I listened to a couple of songs they played and they ROCK!
I am gonna try to go to the event and park out front somewhere with my bug rig….It’s bound to turn some heads.
I can sincerely say “I hope everybody gets a chance to see Ant’s in the Kitchen”
