Carpenter ant evidence
Repeated ants and wood-shaving debris should prompt identification and a check for nesting and moisture.
For pest control in Port Moody, EnviroGreen inspects both the reported activity and conditions around the property. Homes near vegetation, attached townhomes and commercial spaces need different plans. Treatment recommendations follow pest identification, access checks and a review of moisture, food and shelter.

Outdoor conditions can help explain an indoor problem. Branches near the roof, stored firewood, damp timber and gaps around utilities deserve attention when ants or rodents repeatedly appear. Those conditions are inspection priorities, not proof that any particular property has an infestation.
In a townhome or condo, shared rooflines and utility spaces may require management involvement. Give the team a clear description of the building and where you have noticed activity so the inspection can be scoped appropriately.

Correct identification and an understanding of the property help determine the appropriate response.
Repeated ants and wood-shaving debris should prompt identification and a check for nesting and moisture.
Garages, crawl spaces and roofline gaps can provide routes into occupied spaces.
Observe the flight path from a distance and keep people away from an active nesting area.
The first visit is used to identify the pest and the conditions supporting it. Treatment and monitoring then focus on the confirmed activity, while prevention recommendations address the routes and resources that could allow the problem to continue.
Treatment may reduce current activity while an entry route or supporting condition remains. A prevention plan should identify practical changes around vegetation, storage, moisture and openings so recurring sightings can be addressed at their source.
Describe sightings near soffits, branches and exterior utilities. Do not climb to inspect inaccessible areas yourself.
Tell the technician about leaks, damp crawl spaces or recently repaired wood.
Ask the strata manager whether connected homes have reported activity before arranging work outside your unit.
Ask which areas need treatment, what preparation is required and how any follow-up will be arranged. Timing and cost depend on the identified pest, access and extent of activity. Follow the instructions provided for your property and report new evidence with its date and location.
No. Outdoor activity alone does not establish an indoor infestation. Identification, location and repeated evidence determine whether intervention is appropriate.
Yes. Describe the affected areas and coordinate with strata management when shared structures require access.
Timing depends on the pest, nest location, extent of activity and any follow-up. The team can explain the expected steps after assessment.
Tell us what you are seeing and where the activity is occurring. Our team will help determine the appropriate next step.
