n/p
: : This is Brent. I do not know if it was me you where looking for? I am the pest control owner in Wisconsin.

: : Pharoah ants should not be treated with D.E. or any chemical. This will cause them to scatter. I always recomend using bait.

: : Carpenter Ants. These guys are also tough to treat.There are some new ants baits that work well for carpenter ants that may also work for pharaohs.

: : I wouls ask if the service has ever used baits for carpenter ants. I would also see if they could use bait only for the pharoahs.

: : As far as fire ants are concerned. I am not well versed with these guys since they do not survive our beautifull but frigid winters.There are a few baits that the sevice can use. One is very simular to what is used for carpenter ants. They how ever are not identical. They have the same active ingredient.

: : If you find the right service,they should be able to do a better and safer job than what you can do.
: : Home made baits do not work on carpenter ants.

: : If you want to have the company contact me, please have them email me and I will be more than glad to coach them on how to use the carpenter ant bait.I was the first company in Wisconsin to perfect the carpenter ant baiting technology.

: : Please excuse my spelling, I worked a 14 hour day today.

: : Thanks and good luck Brent
: : : Brad,

: : : I am completely at bay in the back yard with pharaoh, carpenter, and fire ants. I'm real worried that they are going to attack King Karl Kruiser at some point. Considering the volume of the amount of the ants I'm going to need to hire a TERMINATOR to get them under control inside and out. I really need your help in my selection process.

: : : 1. What kind of questions do I need to ask them to know for sure they can kill these ants outside and not hurt the torts.

: : : 2. What do you consider "assistance" from your clients when you go inside the house ? (ie: should I remove all socket plates? Clean out under sinks?,etc.)

: : : 3. Should I sign a continuing contract?

: : : Please let me know what you think.

: : : Ciao'

: : : Giovanni
