£220 for a house, £190 for a flat. A smaller gap than most of our services, and there is a reason for that worth knowing.
Professional ant treatment for a house in Harrow Weald is £220. A flat is £190.
The £30 gap is narrower than for our rodent services, where the difference is £50. Ant treatment tends to concentrate on a specific entry route and the nest feeding it, so property size matters less than it does for a pest that ranges through a whole building.
Professional ant treatment at a house — dealing with the colony producing the indoor activity, rather than the ants visible on the worktop.
It is a published price, so you can decide whether it is worth it without a call-back and a quotation.
For rats and mice, the flat-to-house difference is £50, because a rodent problem ranges across a whole property — lofts, voids, garages, the full ground-floor perimeter.
Ant activity is usually more concentrated. There is a route in, and a nest somewhere near the other end of it, and the work focuses there. A four-bedroom house with one kitchen trail is not four times the work of a flat with one kitchen trail.
There is still a difference, and it is mostly about what is outside:

We do not treat gardens for ants. A nest under a lawn, a border or a patio slab is a normal part of an outdoor space and treating it achieves nothing useful. Garden ants aerate soil and predate other insects; removing them is neither necessary nor sensible.
What we treat is a colony producing persistent indoor activity. That colony may well be outside — but the treatment is aimed at the problem it is causing indoors, not at the presence of ants in your garden.
A nest in the lawn is a garden. A nest in the lawn sending a trail through your kitchen every morning for a month is a problem.
Two honest limits on the house price.
If your objective is no ants anywhere on the property, that is not something we will sell you, because it is neither achievable nor desirable.
Where ants are coming in through a gap that needs filling — a failed mortar joint, a gap at a patio junction, a perished door seal — that is building work. We will tell you exactly where we found the route; making it good is a different trade.
Rented houses are treated at the same £220 price. Ants are among the more common tenant reports and frequently do not need treatment, so it is worth establishing what is actually happening before arranging a visit — a photograph of the trail and where it enters is genuinely useful.
Ant work concentrates where the activity is, which is usually one or two routes. Tell us where you are seeing them and we will confirm what your property needs.
Treatment aimed at a colony works through the colony, so it is not instant. That is the mechanism working rather than failing — ask us what to expect for your situation.
Possibly, if there is a colony nearby and the route in is still open. Sealing that route is what makes the difference between one treatment and an annual one.

No. Garden ants are normal and treating a lawn or border achieves nothing useful.
We treat the colony producing persistent indoor activity. The nest may be outside, but the target is the indoor problem, not ants in your garden.
No — that is building work. We will tell you where the route is; making it good is a different trade.
Not instantly. Treatment aimed at a colony works through the colony, which takes a little time.
