Local Context

Why Manhattan Homes Need Ant Control

Manhattan's elevation of 1,020 feet and high humidity create a perfect storm for ants, especially during the hot summers. The suburban layout of neighborhoods near K-State means ants have easy access to both natural and man-made structures, leading to frequent infestations. With a median home value of $245,000, Manhattan homeowners can't afford the structural damage ants cause by tunneling through foundations and wood.

Manhattan's proximity to the Kansas River and its many green spaces means ant colonies often nest in the thick, moisture-retaining soil common in older neighborhoods near Aggieville. We've found that ants here are particularly drawn to the mulch and landscaping around homes built in the 1990s and 2000s, making routine inspections a must for local homeowners.

Manhattan Ant Prevention Tips

Seal cracks in your Manhattan home's foundation before summer hits, as the humid continental climate drives ants indoors for moisture. Keep mulch at least 6 inches from your home's siding in Manhattan to reduce ant nesting sites in the damp soil. Store firewood and yard debris away from your house in Manhattan, as these attract ants seeking shelter from the 17°F winter lows.
