Guard your home with safe and effective ant spray services
Our unique ant spray is a powerful combination of chemicals and ant bait that is designed to attract greedy ants and destroy ants already present in the affected area. Once consumed, the ants quickly die and the treated area remains protected against future ant invaders for 60 days after the initial treatment.
Farrell’s Spray Service is committed to the health and safety of our customers, their children and their furry friends. Our ant spray has a low level of toxicity making it a safer solution than most retail ant control products.

Ant Control
Effective ant control begins with reducing the opportunities ants have to make themselves at home in your yard or house. Ants are opportunistic and dedicated foragers who sometimes travel in groups to search for food to bring back to the colony. The simplest way to prevent ants from entering your home is to eliminate the opportunities they have to find food.
Be sure to call us after you have examined the interior of your home. Our ant control team will help you identify the type of ant infestation you have, and provide you with additional tips while you wait for our technicians to arrive.
If you notice ants in your home, follow this checklist:
- Examine pantries and food storage to see if packages have been left open or are accessible to insects. Securely seal and store food and beverages.
- Check pet food and water bowls. Ants can often be found stealing from your dog or cat’s dish.
- Look for cracks or openings around doors or windows. Ants can sneak into spaces that may be invisible to the naked eye, so we advise examining the entrances to your home during the brightest time of the day. This can help reveal openings. Be sure to check entrances to the attic as well.
- Seal any holes or cracks you notice in the home.
Types of Ants
Farrell’s Spray Service specializes in ant control that effectively kills and protects against all species of ants found in Eastern Washington. Our ant spray is equally effective against spiders and other low crawling insects such as earwigs.
Here are some of the common ants that are found in homes and yards in Spokane and Eastern Washington:
Odorous House Ants
Commonly referred to as sugar ants, odorous house ants are small, dark brown or black ants that are most often found in bathrooms and kitchens. When crushed, sugar ants release a rotting fruit smell that resembles spoiled coconuts. These ants prefer damp places that provide a steady source of water. In the yard, these ants are commonly found in the garden or in other foliage that produce sweet or sugar fruits or vegetables.
Odorous house ants are a nuisance pest that can be difficult to deal with, but generally harmless to humans or pets.
Carpenter Ants
Carpenter ants are one of the largest species of ants found in Eastern Washington. They have dark colored bodies that can appear entirely black, entirely red, or a combination of red and black. They are commonly found outdoors in live trees, tree stumps or logs. Many people think carpenters ants eat wood, but that is a myth! Carpenter ants nest and build colonies in wood. They do not use it as a source of food.
If you have noticed flying ants in or around your home, you have a carpenter ant problem and it’s time to call Farrell’s Spray Service!
Pavement Ants
Pavement ants are a common feature of driveways and sidewalks in Spokane! These tiny black or brown ants nest nest in soil which is why you may notice them swarming near cracks in the pavement. These nuisance pests are opportunistic and will enter homes in search of food.
Pavement ants do not pose a threat to humans or pets, but if they have easy access to your home, you can quickly become overwhelmed by nests and colonies. Pavement ants can survive in many environments including insulation, inside walls, attics and throughout liveable spaces in the home.
