As the majority of ant species prefer sunny climates, our environment is perfect for ants to thrive in. Although black or garden ants aren’t thought to carry diseases, they can be a particular nuisance when they get into your home.
Ants generally are of nuisance value to many residents and if not treated correctly can cause damage to one’s paving, whereby they tunnel under the brickwork and deposit heaps of soil, causing the paving to collapse.
As well as being an annoyance, in certain circumstances their vast numbers and nesting habits can destroy plants and grass growth.
