Pest Control In Ancaster
Ancaster was founded in 1792 and became part of the City of Hamilton in 2001, and today it is home to more than 40,000 residents. It sits on the Niagara Escarpment, with a historic village core along Wilson Street, where some buildings date back to the early 1800s, newer neighbourhoods like the Meadowlands east of Highway 403, and wooded properties along the Dundas Valley Conservation Area and the Bruce Trail. Ridge Pest Control serves all of Ancaster.
Common Pest Issues In Ancaster
Mature trees and wooded lots are part of Ancaster's character, and they bring carpenter ants into damp wood, stumps and firewood, along with heavy spider activity on the house. Older stone and brick homes in the village give mice plenty of ways in when the weather cools, while newer subdivisions see ants and rodents around fresh foundations. Wasps nest in eaves, decks and fences through late summer.
Hamilton is considered a risk area for blacklegged ticks, though the risk remains low, so yards that border the Dundas Valley, the Bruce Trail and other wooded areas are worth treating.

Frequently Asked Questions
I back onto the Dundas Valley. Do I need a tick treatment?
It is worth considering, especially if kids or pets use the yard. Our perimeter tick treatment targets the yard, perimeter and landscape zones where ticks wait in tall grass and along wooded edges.
Do you treat carpenter ants?
Yes. We locate where they are nesting and treat the source. See ant and carpenter ant treatment for how it works.
Which nearby areas do you serve?
All of Ancaster plus Dundas, Hamilton, Binbrook and Mount Hope and the rest of the city.
