Ants can quickly spread through kitchens, walls, and foundations. Richland’s licensed technicians identify the species, treat the colony at its source, and help keep ants from returning. Family-owned and trusted across Connecticut for over 50 years.
Seeing ants usually means a colony is established nearby. Store-bought sprays may kill the ants you see, but they often leave the nest untouched. Richland Pest & Bee Control begins by identifying the ant species, locating active trails and entry points, and selecting a treatment plan based on your home and the season.
Our licensed technicians use targeted, responsible methods for interior and exterior areas, explain what to expect, and provide follow-up support when covered ants return. With more than 50 years serving Connecticut families, we focus on solving the source of the problem rather than applying a temporary spray.
We identify the ant species and colony conditions, treat active areas with purpose, and help reduce the conditions that allow ants to return.
We inspect trails, moisture sources, entry points, nesting areas, and the parts of the structure where activity is concentrated.
Based on the species and colony location, we create an interior and exterior treatment plan tailored to your property.

Ant activity is often a sign of a larger colony nearby. Richland identifies the source, treats the active problem, and helps reduce the conditions that allow ants to return.
Skip the guesswork and surface sprays. Our licensed technicians inspect the activity, build a targeted plan, and explain what to expect before treatment begins.
If covered ants return during your plan’s coverage period, we’ll come back and re-treat at no additional charge.
Food, water, warmth, and shelter attract ants. Small gaps around foundations, windows, plumbing, and utility lines can provide easy access.
Visible ants are usually workers from a larger colony. Surface sprays may reduce activity while leaving the queen and nest untouched.
Your technician selects targeted products and application areas with children, pets, preparation, re-entry, and aftercare in mind.
Seal accessible gaps, store food securely, clean crumbs and spills, repair moisture issues, and trim vegetation away from the structure.
Ants are among the most common household pests in Connecticut, but not every ant problem should be treated the same way. Carpenter ants, pavement ants, odorous house ants, and other species differ in nesting habits and treatment needs. Correct identification helps determine whether activity is coming from soil, wall voids, damp wood, or another part of the property.
Richland Pest & Bee Control has served Connecticut homes and businesses since 1974. Our technicians inspect the structure, follow active trails, look for moisture and entry conditions, and build a plan designed around the species and the property.
Depending on the species and level of activity, service may include targeted interior applications, exterior perimeter treatment, baiting, treatment of cracks and crevices, and recommendations for correcting moisture or access points. We avoid one-size-fits-all programs and explain the plan before treatment begins.
Carpenter ants do not eat wood, but they may excavate damp or damaged wood to create galleries. Repeated activity around windows, rooflines, decks, kitchens, or bathrooms can indicate moisture or nesting conditions that deserve attention. Treating the colony and addressing contributing moisture conditions helps reduce the chance of continued activity.
Contact us when trails keep returning, winged ants appear indoors, activity is coming from walls or ceilings, or DIY products provide only temporary relief. You will reach a live person, and on-site appointments are typically available within 1–3 business days.
