Why Durham Homes Need Ant Control
Ants are particularly problematic in Durham due to the city's high humidity and urban density, which provide abundant food sources and nesting sites. The combination of Duke University's sprawling campus and dense residential areas means ants can quickly spread from one property to another. In Durham, species like odorous house ants and carpenter ants are common, with the latter posing structural risks to homes in this historic city.
