Inspection of activity and entry routes
We check where ants are concentrated and where they appear to be coming from, including indoor edges like skirting and outdoor areas near landscaping or gaps.
See ants marching along skirting boards, around doorways, or gathering near kitchens? 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney can inspect where the activity is starting and treat the likely source, not just the visible ants.

What you can expect
If ants keep returning, the key is finding the route and the nesting source. In Westleigh, 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney inspects likely entry points and activity hotspots, then applies treatment to the areas that are encouraging the infestation.
