Moisture ants, also called cornfield ants, are small yellowish-brown ants that show up in Burnaby homes in late summer.
They nest in the ground and in damp, rotting wood, with colonies of tens of thousands. They often come in through cracks in the slab near the furnace or hot water tank, then find their way to the kitchen.
Pest Boss handles moisture ant control across Burnaby. We treat the colony and point out the moisture problem that drew them in.
Give Pest Boss a call if you’re seeing any of these:
- Small yellow or light brown ants near the furnace room or hot water tank
- Ants coming up through cracks in a concrete floor
- Ants under the siding near the foundation
- Swarms of winged ants in late summer
