What are ants?
Ants are social insects. They work together to gather food, raise the young, and protect the nest. Inside their nests, they keep eggs, larvae, pupae, and some that belong to different castes. Scientists have described 1,275 ant species living in Australia so far. Further research could uncover double that number.
Ants have unique capabilities, including legendary communication skills that enable their colonies to operate as superorganisms.
Fun Fact: The ant population on Earth tallies an astonishing 20 quadrillion, meaning for every single human, there exist 2.5 million ants.

How To Prevent Ants?
You can stop ants from entering your home and pose some health risks by laying down common household items like salt, baby powder, lemon juice, chalk, vinegar, bay leaves, cinnamon, or peppermint oil in the areas where they are getting in. They will avoid trails that lead them through these substances, cutting off their access points into your house.
What To Do If You Have Ant Problems?
- Identify places where they frequently gather.
- Remove any standing water sources.
- Store all food in sealed containers so ants cannot get to it.
- Clean up any crumbs or morsels your pets may leave behind.
- Seal off cracks or holes where they enter your home.
- When ant issues persist, contact professional exterminators like Eco Pest Control Adelaide for help getting rid of them.
