Call 587-906-4440 Text Exterminator Directly!Carpenter ants are one of the most destructive ant species found in Devon because they nest inside wood and can cause significant structural damage over time. Unlike termites, carpenter ants do not eat wood—they excavate it to create smooth tunnels for their colonies. They are often attracted to damp or water-damaged wood around windows, roofs, decks, and foundations, but established colonies can eventually spread into dry, sound wood as they grow. Seeing large black ants inside your home, especially during the evening, is often one of the first signs that a carpenter ant colony may be nearby.
At Devon Pest Control, we provide professional carpenter ant inspections and treatments designed to eliminate the entire colony, not just the ants you see. Our experienced technicians identify nesting locations, locate satellite colonies, and treat the source of the infestation using proven methods that provide long-lasting control. Whether you've noticed carpenter ants indoors, piles of fine sawdust-like frass beneath wooden structures, or activity around your home's exterior, we'll develop a customized treatment plan to protect your property and help prevent future infestations.

We explain preparation requirements before treatment and provide practical instructions for re-entry, cleaning and follow-up. The exact procedure depends on the level of infestation and property.
