Ants will enter a property through small cracks and crevices around vulnerable areas like windows, pipes, siding, and between bricks. They come into kitchens looking for food and, once they find a source, they will start what is known as a “bucket brigade” to bring it back to the nest. Luckily, we can use this to our advantage by placing gels and other forms of bait in their path. They bring the bait to the colony, spreading it through the population and resulting in an eventual collapse.
