The Ant Problem in Cairns
Ants are highly adaptive creatures. They thrive in the humid conditions Cairns is known for, building extensive colonies that can number in the hundreds of thousands. They’re not just a nuisance; they can cause real damage to your property, disrupting electrical circuits and damaging household items. They’re particularly attracted to the abundant fruits and flowering plants native to our region, which provide a rich food source.
We understand the unique challenges that Cairns residents face when it comes to ant control. From the lush botanical gardens in the city to the tranquil suburbs bordering the rainforest, each area has its own unique ant control issues. That’s why at Ridapest Termite & Pest Control, we don’t offer a one-size-fits-all solution.
