Ghost ants, fire ants, carpenter ants — South Florida has them all, and they don't take winters off.

We serve Homestead, Cutler Bay, Palmetto Bay, Pinecrest, South Miami, Coral Gables, and Kendall — and with 164+ five-star reviews, our neighbors trust us to get it right the first time.
Our 5-Step Ant Control Process
- Thorough Ant Inspection: Our licensed technicians identify ant species, entry points, nesting areas, and the full extent of the infestation — indoors and outdoors.
- Customized Ant Control Plan: We craft a targeted treatment plan based on the inspection findings, addressing ant colonies at their source with species-specific baits and barrier treatments.
- Safe & Effective Treatments: We use EPA-registered products applied by licensed technicians — safe for your family, pets, and the environment.
- Preventative Measures: We seal entry points and provide guidance on eliminating moisture and food sources that attract ants to your home.
- Follow-Up & Ongoing Protection: Residential Protection Program™ (RPP) customers receive quarterly exterior treatments that maintain a protective barrier against ants year-round.
Common Ant Species We Treat in South Florida
- Ghost Ants: Tiny, nearly invisible ants that infest kitchens and bathrooms. The #1 nuisance ant in Miami-Dade County.
- Fire Ants: Aggressive red ants that build mounds in yards. Their stings are painful and can cause allergic reactions.
- Carpenter Ants: Large black ants that nest in wood. They don't eat wood but excavate galleries that weaken structures over time.
- Big-Headed Ants: Invasive species that displace native ants and create extensive underground colonies.
- White-Footed Ants: Extremely large colonies (up to 3 million) that are resistant to many standard treatments.
Why Choose Dade Pest Solutions for Ant Control
- Species-Specific Baiting: Different ant species require different treatments. We identify the species and apply the correct bait for maximum colony elimination.
- Colony Elimination: Surface sprays only kill workers. Our baiting systems are carried back to the colony, eliminating the queen and the entire nest.
- Exterior Barrier Treatments: We create a chemical barrier around your home's perimeter to stop ants before they enter.
- Long-Term Prevention: Ongoing RPP protection prevents re-infestation — especially important in South Florida's warm, year-round ant season.
Included in the Residential Protection Program™ (RPP): Ant control is part of our ongoing RPP service. RPP customers receive quarterly exterior perimeter treatments that maintain a protective barrier against ants, roaches, spiders, and other common household pests — year-round, no extra charge.
