Tips when inspecting for ants

Desiree Straubinger, BCE

Desiree Straubinger, BCE

Don’t guess! A thorough inspection is the first step in an ant management program. Inspections should be part of every routine service — and not just when customers call you about ants in their kitchen pantries. You must identify structural deficiencies, favorable landscaping or other conditions conducive to ants.

Document everything you see:

  • Potential attraction sources: food or moisture sources, improper storage practices, subpar sanitation, honeydew-producing insects, etc.
  • Access points: cracks/openings around doors, windows and utility lines; plantings too close to the structure; etc.
  • Potential nesting sites: areas with landscape stone, rock walls, downed trees or structural timbers; and piles of compost or other organic debris; etc.

Having this information recorded before an issue arises or an ant-related callback occurs will help you locate the attraction source, potential entry point, and ultimately, the ant trail or nest more quickly.

GPCA PestVets hosts winter coat drive

LOGO: GPCA The Georgia Pest Control Association’s (GCPA) PestVets collected nearly 5,000 coats for those in need at its annual Homeless Veterans Coat Drive.

The coat drive, run in collaboration with the Cherokee County Homeless Veterans Program, collected donations from Oct. 1 to Nov. 1, 2022.

On Dec. 16, volunteers with PestVets and the Cherokee County Homeless Veterans Program met at the American Legion building in Canton, Ga., to sort donations by size and weed out any in poor condition. During the drive, coats were collected regardless of size, season, gender or age, as the coats went to homeless or near-homeless veterans and their families.

“We collected 3,500 coats last year, and that was impressive,” said Xavier Cugnon, co-chair of PestVets and vice president of human resources administration at Arrow Exterminating. “But with nearly 5,000 this year, we knocked it out of the park.”

Coats collected during the drive were donated from PestVets to the Cherokee County Homeless Veterans Program. Once in the care of the Cherokee County Homeless Veterans Program, the coats are then distributed to other veterans’ service organizations throughout the southeast.

“We truly appreciate everyone’s help in collecting and donating coats,” said Rick Anglian, co-chair of PestVets and business development manager at Bug Busters. “This year, we had one large U-Haul full of coats, but next year we’d love to have two. We want to continue to amplify our efforts and get more people involved.”
