Ant exterminators in Massachusetts

As you probably know, there's a seasonal aspect to pest control in Massachusetts. In other words, different types of pests are more common during certain seasons. Ant exterminators in Massachusetts are all too familiar with an annual rite of spring: carpenter ant activity dramatically rising. 

So why do ants in Massachusetts wake up from their winter slumber in the spring? There are a lot of variables at play with increasing ant activity, including the temperature, but there's another important aspect: what they eat.

Ants on the south shore, and other locations in Massachusetts, feed on protein from plant material. So an early spring, which allows plants to bloom early, may lead to an early ant season. Even though it's only March, ant exterminators in Massachusetts, like Burgess Pest Management, are already noticing an unusually high number of ant calls.
