ANTS

TruPest Solutions – Local Experts in Identifying and Eliminating Ants

Ant infestations are one of the most common pest problems in homes and businesses across Rialto and Fontana. At TruPest Solutions, we specialize in identifying the exact ant species and applying targeted treatments that eliminate the colony at the source — not just the ants you see.

🔍 Common Ant Species in Rialto, Fontana, and surrounding cities.

1. Argentine Ants

These small, dark brown ants form massive colonies and are notorious for invading kitchens and bathrooms in search of sweets and moisture. Argentine ants are especially difficult to control because they have multiple queens.

Where they’re found: Sidewalks, kitchens, wall voids, foundations
Control tip: Baits work best; over-the-counter sprays often worsen the problem

2. Odorous House Ants

Named for the rotten coconut smell they release when crushed, these ants are resilient and often nest in wall voids and under flooring. They’re attracted to sugary spills and pet food.

Where they’re found: Inside pantries, baseboards, near moisture
Control tip: Consistent baiting and sealing entry points are key

3. Pavement Ants

Common in driveways, sidewalks, and patios, these ants build dirt mounds between concrete cracks and often enter homes through expansion joints.

Where they’re found: Under concrete slabs, garages, bathrooms
Control tip: Professional perimeter sprays and granular baits help prevent reinfestation

4. Red Imported Fire Ants (Less common but dangerous)

While not as widespread, fire ants have been found in parts of Fontana and southern Rialto. These aggressive ants deliver painful stings and can pose a risk to kids and pets.

Where they’re found: Lawns, electrical boxes, near irrigation
Control tip: Specialized bait and barrier treatments are required
