Professional San Antonio Ant Exterminator
Ants are some of the most persistent pests San Antonio homeowners face. Dealing with ants in your home or yard can feel like a never-ending battle. One day, they’re swarming your kitchen counters. The next, they’re building colonies in your yard.
At Alta Pest Control, we understand how frustrating these tiny invaders can be. Schedule with one of our ant exterminators in San Antonio to get ant infestations under control. Our San Antonio ant control services eliminate ant problems at the source.
How Do You Know When It’s Time for Professional Ant Control?
Seeing a few ants here and there might not seem like a big deal—especially in a city like San Antonio, where ants are common. But if you’re noticing ants showing up day after day, it’s often a sign there’s a bigger problem hiding out of sight.
Here are a few signs it’s time to call an ant exterminator:
- You keep finding ants, even after cleaning or spraying.
- Ant trails reappear in the same areas, like your kitchen or bathroom.
- You spot large ants around your home, which could mean carpenter ants damaging your walls or structure.
- You find ant mounds or nests in your yard, especially fire ants.
- DIY sprays and traps only work for a day or two, but the ants keep coming back.
Once ants settle in, getting rid of the colony with store-bought sprays is almost impossible. Most of these products only treat the ants you can see, leaving the nest untouched. Our ant control treatments eliminate the problem at the source by targeting the entire colony, not just the surface activity. In the long run, it saves you time, frustration, and money by solving the problem.
Carpenter Ant Control, Fire Ant Control & More in San Antonio, TX
San Antonio is home to more than just one type of ant—and not all of them behave the same. From trail-building kitchen invaders to aggressive yard stingers, different ants bring different problems. That’s why our ant control in San Antonio is designed to tackle all the most common species with one reliable, long-term solution.
Here are the types of ants we most often treat in and around San Antonio:
Sugar Ants & Odorous House Ants
These tiny ants are always on the hunt for food and moisture. You’ll find them in kitchens, bathrooms, and pantries. Odorous house ants are especially frustrating—they leave a musty smell when crushed and tend to return quickly if not professionally treated.
Carpenter Ants
Larger than most household ants, carpenter ants dig through wood instead of hunting for food. Over time, they can cause structural damage inside walls, beams, and other wooden areas of your home.
Fire Ants
Fire ants build dirt mounds across yards and deliver painful stings when disturbed. They’re a common problem in San Antonio and can make outdoor spaces uncomfortable or even dangerous for kids and pets.
Pavement Ants
Pavement ants nest under sidewalks, driveways, and foundations. Though they start outside, it’s common for them to move indoors through small cracks, where they can quickly form trails along floors and baseboards.
Flying Ants
Flying ants usually show up when a colony has matured and is ready to expand. Seeing them around your home—especially inside—means it’s time to act fast before things get worse.
No matter which type of ant you’re dealing with, our San Antonio ant control service is ready to eliminate the entire colony and keep them from coming back. One ant treatment takes care of them all—so you can stop guessing and start seeing results.

FAQs
Do you treat inside or just outside?
We do both. If ants are active inside, we’ll treat the interior and create a strong barrier outside to stop new ants from getting in.
Do store-bought sprays work for ants?
Not long-term. Sprays only kill the ants you see but don’t reach the colony. Without treating the nest, ants keep coming back.
How do I stop ants from coming back between treatments?
Keeping counters clean, sealing food, and fixing moisture issues like leaky pipes help. During our visit, we’ll also point out any areas that might attract ants so you know what to watch for.
How soon will the ants be gone after treatment?
You’ll see results within a few days as the ants return the product to the colony. Complete control can take a little longer, depending on the size of the nest.
What should I do before or after my ant treatment?
No prep is needed before your appointment. After treatment, our technician will explain any specific steps when they finish.
