Common Types of Ants in Perth Homes
Each type of ant in Perth has well-defined features. Knowing which type is conquering your home can help tailor an effective treatment plan. Some common types we usually find in Perth homes include:
Black House Ants
This type of ants are tiny, black, and attracted to sugary foods. Often they enter homes or properties in search of food and water. Though they are not harmful, they can turn into a persistent nuisance.
Coastal Brown Ants
Usually, these ants are light brown to see and thrive near coastal areas. Coastal brown ants can nest in walls, foundations, and floors. They can lead to structural damage if not treated promptly.
Argentine Ants
They are a light brown color, can displace other ant species, and are recognized by their highly aggressive nature. Argentine ants are drawn to moisture and food sources indoors, so it’s quite challenging to control once established.
Sugar Ants
Especially charmed by sweet food, and these ants are usually found in kitchens. Actually, they contaminate food sources in the kitchens. Typically they enter home through small cracks and are specifically active during warmer months.

Noticeable ant trails in the walls, floors, and kitchen areas.
Ants nest around the house (soil mounds or wall crevices).
Food contamination, specifically sweet or greasy food items.
Damage to wooden structures, furniture, or indoor plants.
How to Prevent Future Ant Infestations
Here are some tips and tricks to keep ants from returning your home:
Seal Entry Points
If there’s any crack or opening in the walls, windows, and doors, caulk it.
Maintain Cleanliness
Store food in airtight and sealed containers and clean up spills instantly.
Regular Inspections
Check for nests around your home once or twice in a month.
Outdoor Maintenance
Trim plants routinely and remove debris near your home or property to minimize nesting areas.
FAQs
It usually takes about a week to observe a decline in ant activity after treatment, though the exact timeline depends on the severity of the infestation and type of treatment used.
Most professional treatments use non-toxic, low-odor products safe for pets and children when applied by certified pest control experts. Specific precautions may apply, such as temporarily leaving treated areas.
Generally, it’s advisable to vacate the treated areas for 2–3 hours to allow products to settle. This precaution applies to both residents and pets, ensuring complete safety after treatment.
Perth homes often deal with species like coastal brown, white-footed, and meat ants, which are difficult to manage due to their nesting habits and adaptability to various environments.
Regular cleaning, sealing entry points, removing food sources, and scheduling periodic pest inspections can reduce the likelihood of reinfestation, ensuring a longer-lasting effect from ant control treatments.
We’ll provide tips and recommendations for preventing future pest infestations, such as sealing entry points, maintaining cleanliness, and removing food and water sources for pests.
