Southern Utah's Most Common Ant Species

St. George and Washington County are home to several ant species that invade homes and businesses. Each requires a different treatment approach — which is why generic store-bought traps rarely work.

Pavement Ants

The most common ant in St. George. They nest under concrete slabs, driveways, and foundations. They emit a strong, pungent smell when crushed.

Harvester Ants

Large, red ants that clear large areas around their nests. Their bite is painful and they are aggressive when their colony is disturbed. Found more in desert areas around Ivins and Santa Clara.

Odorous House Ants

Small dark ants that give off a rotten coconut smell when crushed. They form multiple colonies — one queen per satellite colony — making them difficult to eliminate without professional treatment.

Fire Ants

Aggressive ants with a painful burning sting. Their mounds can appear suddenly in yards, and they will swarm if the mound is disturbed. Dangerous for families with young children or pets.

Ant Control FAQ

Why are there ants in my kitchen even after I clean?

Ants leave a scent trail that other ants follow — even if you clean the surface. The colony is likely nesting somewhere inside your walls, under your foundation, or in a nearby crack. Professional baiting eliminates the trail and the colony.

Will ant traps from the hardware store work?

Often not for long. Store-bought ant traps kill visible ants but rarely reach the queen. With multiple queen colonies, new ants keep hatching faster than you can kill them. Our professional baiting program eliminates colonies at the source.
