Every year, countless homeowners throughout Brooklyn have to deal with ant infestations. Ants are some of the most common household pests around the world and it can be very annoying to find these little pests marching into your home by the dozens, hundreds or even thousands. While some species of ants are relatively harmless, all of them can carry bacteria into your home. Some kinds of ants may also be venomous or cause damage to wooden parts of your house. This may leave you to wonder, "Why are ants so attracted to my house?"
More often than not, ants infest houses in Brooklyn after discovering food inside. Unfortunately, ants aren't picky - anything you keep in your kitchen is something they can eat, though they're especially fond of sugary things like soda and candy, as well as greasy foods like meat and cheese. All it takes is crumbs dusting kitchen counters, tables, and floors for a horde of ants to begin relying on your house for food. If you wash your dishes immediately after meals and wash the surfaces of your kitchen on a regular basis, you're less likely to have ant problems.
Sometimes, ants also enter our houses in search of shelter. This is most common in fall and winter, when ants are trying to escape the cold weather outside. Ants look for places that provide warmth, such as inside walls, under floors, and in basements. Look around doorways, windowsills, and the foundation of your house for swarming ants during these seasons.
