With spring around the corner, I've noticed a lot of those big black ants invading my home. No matter how many I kill, more keep appearing, and I'm not sure where they're coming from. How often do you spray for bugs inside your house? What products do you use that have been effective in dealing with these pesky ants? Thanks in advance for any advice!

I recommend keeping your kitchen spotless and sealing up any cracks where ants might get in. I had ant problems too, but after cleaning thoroughly and caulking all the crevices, plus using Optiguard Ant Gel bait, I've seen a huge difference. Allow the bait to work its magic!
If you're dealing with those big black ants, you should consider using ant baits like TERRO. The ants carry the bait back to their colony, which can effectively eliminate the source of the problem. Just killing them on sight won't solve the issue long-term!
You might be dealing with carpenter ants, which indicate there could be rotting wood in your home. It's crucial to fix any damaged wood before trying to get rid of the ants. If you're unsure, bringing in a pest control professional could be a good idea.
