Expert Ant Treatment in Malvern, Worcestershire

Expert Ant Treatment Service Covering Worcestershire, Herefordshire and Worcestershire.

Fast, Effective & Family-Run Ant Control Solutions

Ants are one of the most common household pests in the UK. While they may seem harmless at first, a persistent ant infestation—especially in kitchens, food storage areas, or commercial properties—can quickly become a frustrating and unhygienic issue. At Malvern Pest Control, we offer reliable, affordable ant treatment in Malvern, and across Worcestershire, Herefordshire, and Gloucestershire.

As a local, family-owned pest control company, we pride ourselves on delivering fast, discreet, and effective ant control services using safe, proven techniques. Whether you’re dealing with black garden ants, ghost ants, or more invasive species, our expert team will get the job done properly.


Why Ant Control Is Important

A few ants in the garden might seem normal—but when they start entering your home or business, they can quickly become a problem:

  • Food Contamination: Ants are attracted to sugary and greasy foods, making kitchens and pantries prime targets.

  • Hygiene Concerns: Ants crawl through soil, rubbish, drains, and animal waste before entering your property—bringing germs with them.

  • Persistent Nesting: Ant colonies are well-organised and hard to eliminate. DIY sprays may kill surface ants, but not the nest.

  • Structural Issues: Some species (e.g. Pharaoh ants or Argentine ants) nest in wall cavities or under floors, causing damage over time.

Professional ant treatment is the only way to completely eliminate the nest and prevent future infestations.


Signs of an Ant Infestation

Ant infestations often start subtly and grow quickly. Look for the following signs:

  • Trails of Ants: Lines of ants travelling to and from food sources.

  • Loose Soil or Sand Piles: Especially around paving stones or wall edges, indicating nesting activity.

  • Ants Inside Your Home: Particularly in kitchens, bathrooms, or around windows and skirting boards.

  • Nesting Sites: Ant nests outdoors, in wall cavities, under floorboards, or near heating pipes.

  • Winged Ants (Flying Ants): During summer, ants swarm to mate—often in large numbers around windows or doors.

Our Professional Ant Treatment Process

We use a targeted approach to not only remove ants but destroy their entire colony:

1. Free Inspection & Identification

We start with a thorough inspection to confirm the type of ant (e.g. black garden ants, pharaoh ants, ghost ants) and locate nesting areas both inside and outside the property.

2. Targeted Insecticidal Gel or Baiting

For many species, we use a professional-grade ant bait gel. Worker ants carry the gel back to the colony, feeding it to the queen and other ants—wiping out the nest at its source.

3. Residual Insecticide Spray (if required)

In cases of heavy infestation, we apply a residual insecticide spray to entry points, skirting boards, and ant trails. This forms a barrier and prevents further entry.

4. Follow-Up & Prevention Advice

We’ll advise you on how to deter ants from returning, including proofing, food hygiene tips, and garden maintenance suggestions.

Ants We Commonly Treat in the UK

There are several ant species in the UK that require different treatments:

  • Black Garden Ants (Lasius niger): The most common; often nest in gardens, under patios, or walls and enter homes in search of food.

  • Pharaoh Ants: Tiny, light brown ants that nest inside buildings and spread rapidly; often require baiting and multi-treatment strategies.

  • Ghost Ants: Small tropical ants, hard to see, often found in bathrooms and kitchens.

  • Argentine Ants: Invasive species forming large colonies; difficult to control without professional intervention.

Our pest control technicians are trained to identify the exact species and use the correct treatment accordingly.
