Ant Control in the Hudson Valley
From carpenter ants tunneling through moisture-damaged wood to odorous house ants trailing across kitchen counters, ants are our most-called-about spring and summer pest. Different species need different treatments — misidentifying them is why DIY sprays fail.
Why this pest matters in the Hudson Valley
Wooded lots, wet basements, and old timber-framed homes across the Hudson Valley are prime carpenter ant habitat. Odorous house ants and pavement ants dominate suburbs from Nyack to Kingston.
Seasonal note: Carpenter ants swarm April–June. Odorous house ants peak in humid July and August. Pavement ants stay active into October.
