Frequently Asked Questions
Lakeland is home to various ant species, including Argentine ants, carpenter ants, red imported fire ants, and ghost ants. Each species has unique behaviors and challenges, requiring specific treatment approaches to manage effectively. For example, unlike termites, carpenter ants may nest in or around moisture-affected wood, while fire ants are known for painful stings that can affect people and pets.
How Quickly Can You Respond to an Ant Infestation?
Same-day scheduling may be available to address ant infestations promptly. Upon contacting us, we can schedule an inspection and develop a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
What Preventative Measures Can I Take to Avoid Ant Infestations?
Regular cleaning to eliminate potential food sources, sealing accessible entry points, and proper waste management are key steps in preventing ant invasions. Trimming vegetation away from your property and checking for moisture issues can also make the area less attractive to ants. Our customized advice considers your specific property conditions.
Are Your Treatments Safe for Pets & Children?
Yes, the safety of our clients and their families is a top priority. We use family-friendly products intended to be safe for children and pets. Safety instructions depend on the treatment location and product label, so follow our directions about treated surfaces, food, children, pets, and re-entry.
Repeated ant trails, activity in multiple rooms, ants emerging from wall or ceiling gaps, winged ants indoors, and outdoor mounds near a structure can all point to a problem worth evaluating. A professional assessment can be useful when the ant type is unclear, activity continues after do-it-yourself treatment, stinging ants are present near people or pets, or ants may be nesting in structural voids.
Recurring activity can be connected to accessible moisture and food sources, damaged seals, vegetation touching the structure, mulch or debris near entry points, or ant nests outside the immediate area. Integrated pest management considers these conditions alongside the ants themselves, helping identify practical prevention steps for the property.
If you’re looking for a company that not only does great lawn and pest control service, you will never find a company that guarantees their work and backs it up like they do. Mat and his crew are the best professionals and hardest-working company that I’ve ever had the pleasure of dealing with. Call them, you won’t be sorry.

"I recommend you every chance I get"
First of all I have Vince and he was last at my home on February 21 and always does an excellent job. He seems very thorough and very professional. I know I don’t have watch him because he has integrity and pride in his job. I appreciate his hard work.
I also want to mention that Jeff does my mother‘s home in 4 Lakes golf club and her name is Karen Johnson. He came to my mom‘s home to do a service and rang the doorbell. He was talking to my mom for a little bit and after he left, I asked her who was at the door. She said “that’s Jeff my friend and he also does my yard and he’s from COUNTRY BOY. He always checks on me every time he’s here and he wants to know that I’m OK. He also sprays every inch of my yard and I don’t have to worry if it was done right” She said “I would never have anyone else do my yard because I love when Jeff comes to check on me.” I just thought I would mention this because it just made my heart so happy to know that somebody cares enough to check on my 88-year-old mother.
I appreciate your company so much and I’ve had you all coming to me for about four years at my current residence and then previously when I lived at 4 Lakes so it’s a total of eight years. You all are exemplary, professional and I appreciate everything that you do for our family. I recommend you every chance I get.
You are a caring company and you are honest. I can’t say that about every company these days.We appreciate you so much and I thank all of you for your service.
