Consider yourself amongst the happy few if you have never seen ants in your home, place of business, or place of education. However, if you’re like the majority of people, you’ve likely engaged in your fair share of conflict with this bothersome insect, whether it be a pavement ants nest in your garage or a swarm of foul-smelling house ants marching across the food counter of your kitchen.
The fact that ants are most commonly seen in kitchens certainly won’t come as a surprise to you. Eventually, kitchens are stocked with food and water, which is what all pests (including ants) require to live. It’s also known that ants like to gather in and around restrooms, living rooms, other rooms, basements, within walls, and air conditioning and heating equipment.
