In Islamorada, ants love the same things we do: warm weather, easy access to food, and plenty of moisture. The difference is they will take advantage of it fast. One small trail near the kitchen sink, a few ants around a trash bin, or activity near a patio door can turn into a daily problem before you even have time to figure out where they are coming from.

Island living also comes with extra triggers. Between humidity, frequent rain, outdoor kitchens, tiki bars, storage sheds, and shaded landscaping, ants have countless spots to nest outside and plenty of reasons to wander inside. And if this is a vacation home or rental property, ants can become a recurring issue simply because the home sits closed up for stretches, then gets busy again.

Eastern Exterminating helps Islamorada homeowners and businesses stop ant problems at the source with species-specific treatment and colony-level control. Call Now or Schedule a Free Inspection and we will help you get control back quickly.

Our Ant Control Process

Step

1

Inspection and Assessment
We start by identifying the ant type and figuring out what is driving the activity. In Islamorada, we often check:

  • Kitchens, pantries, and trash areas for food sources
  • Bathrooms and laundry spaces for moisture and slow leaks
  • Door thresholds, window tracks, baseboards, and pipe penetrations
  • Outdoor pressure points like patios, outdoor kitchens, planters, and storage areas
  • Nesting signs around pavers, rock beds, mulch, and the home perimeter
The goal is to find the why behind the trail, not just wipe out what you can see.

Step

2

Custom Treatment Plan
Every Islamorada property is different. Some are canal-front homes, some are tucked into tropical landscaping, and some are businesses with constant foot traffic. Your plan may include:

  • Targeted baiting that ants carry back to the colony
  • Spot treatments in active zones inside and outside
  • A perimeter barrier to reduce re-entry and stop new trails
  • Practical prevention tips that match your setup and lifestyle

Step

3

Full Extermination
Ants can look gone for a few days and then show right back up if the colony is still active. We focus on colony-level control by targeting nests and satellite colonies that keep the problem going behind the scenes.

Step

4

Ongoing Monitoring and Prevention
In the Keys, ants do not really take a season off. If you have repeat activity, we can recommend ongoing service that includes:

  • Follow-ups to confirm the activity is fully resolved
  • Re-checking common entry zones and outdoor pressure points
  • Long-term prevention so trails do not keep restarting

Why Ant Control Matters in Islamorada

Ants can become more than a nuisance

Ants spread quickly once they lock onto a food or moisture source. Depending on the species, they can:

  • Get into pantry items and food-prep areas
  • Spread room-to-room along baseboards and plumbing lines
  • Bite or sting, especially outdoors
  • Nest in hidden spaces that are hard to reach without the right plan

If you are seeing ants during the day, it usually means the colony is established and actively foraging.

Local relevance: common ant issues in the Islamorada area

Islamorada’s humidity and landscaping make several ant types common in the Keys. The most frequent issues we see involve:

  • Fire ants, which can create painful stings and outdoor mounds
  • Sugar ants or ghost ants, which show up fast in kitchens and bathrooms
  • Carpenter ants, which are drawn to moisture and can nest in damp wood
  • Crazy ants, which can be stubborn outside and form messy, unpredictable trails
