There are more than 12,000 ant species in the world, 130 of them found in Singapore. Of these, the carpenter ant is one of the most difficult to control. Any home, especially one on the ground or low floor, is vulnerable because these ants sneak in through tiny cracks and may be followed by the entire colony.
Ants can nest anywhere around your house. They can hollow out wood and can cause irreparable damage if they go undetected or untreated for a long period of time. We offer advanced protection with a three-step process that helps address ant issues in your home:

Home remedies hardly eliminate ant problems. If you spot an infestation or want to be protected from future infestations, the Greencare man will first inspect your home. He will check for moisture and softwood in areas like windows, sinks, and doorframes, where ants like to nest. Then, he will help identify entry points that allow ants to sneak inside. If he finds any ants, he can also look for the colony’s nest.
Once the Greencare Man finishes his assessment, he will document his findings and work with you to craft a pest control plan to address the issues related to your infestation. He will treat any infestation areas and provide recommendations to help reduce moisture or other conditions that may attract ants to your home.
Our Greencare technician will continue to monitor your house year-round to help prevent these ants from returning.
The most effective methods for controlling ants include sealing entry points, keeping surfaces clean, and using baits or safe and natural repellents like vinegar or diatomaceous earth.
To identify the type of ants infesting your home, observe their size, colour, nesting habits, and foraging patterns. Common household types include sugar ants, pharaoh’s ants, and carpenter ants.
Greencare invests in safer ant control treatments to avoid placing you, your children or your pets at risk. However, we would advise you to take additional safety precautions and even vacate the premises for the allotted time taken for treatment for your peace of mind.
Contact Greencare, Singapore’s leading pest control company, if ant infestations persist despite DIY efforts or if you spot large colonies, ant hills, or structural damage around your home.
Ants can be a big risk to your property. For an ant treatment to be truly effective, it must penetrate and destroy the unseen nest as well as the infestation. Keeping ants away is not a one-time event — it’s an ongoing process. Our technicians deliver the most effective solutions — deeply rooted in the latest scientific research — to help protect your home. Ants don’t stand a chance against the greencare man.
