Thanksgiving is a time for family, friends, and food. But there’s one uninvited guest you certainly don’t want attending the festivities—ants. While you’re focusing on turkey and pumpkin pie, ants might be gearing up for a feast of their own right in your kitchen.
Don’t worry, though! With Cypress Creek Pest Control, keeping ants at bay this holiday season is easier than you think.
Thanksgiving provides ants with all the things they love—warm homes, plenty of food, and leftovers that often get left out longer than usual. Here’s why ants are more likely to show up this time of year:
Ant infestations, even small ones, can quickly get out of control. They create trails your whole household might overlook, and once they get comfortable, they’re tough to remove.
Ignoring ant prevention not only disrupts your holiday—but it could also mean costly pest control in the long term.
Here are some actionable steps to ensure your Thanksgiving remains ant-free:
Ants are quick to track down food crumbs and spills. Make it a habit to wipe down countertops, sweep the floor, and wash dishes immediately after your cooking session. Don’t leave anything overnight!
Ensure all leftovers are sealed in airtight containers. Plastic wrap is often not enough to deter ants, so choose heavy-duty options when storing your delicious Thanksgiving creations.
Overflowing trash cans are a beacon for ants. Regularly empty them throughout the day, especially on Thanksgiving, when trash builds up quickly with food scraps and packaging.
Ants can enter your home through the smallest cracks and gaps. Check around doors, windows, and the foundation, and seal any openings you come across.
