How We Treat Ghost Ants in Captiva
Gel bait placed in hidden harborage areas is the most effective approach. We target foraging trails and satellite colonies inside wall voids and under appliances. Perimeter barrier treatment prevents re-entry. Results typically visible within 48-72 hours. In Captiva, we also account for salt air and coastal humidity, which affect how quickly barrier products break down outdoors.
