📞 Call Now: 215-800-0029Killing visible ants with retail sprays only removes worker ants while the colony — and queen — remains intact beneath the structure. City Best's ant service uses slow-acting bait that workers carry back to the colony, eliminating it at the source. For carpenter ants, we also inspect and treat wood framing and void spaces where colonies nest. Treatment is targeted to the specific ant species present, since carpenter ants, pavement ants, and odorous house ants require different approaches.

Frankford is a working-class neighborhood in Northeast Philadelphia with a dense stock of row homes and twins from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries along the Frankford Creek corridor. The neighborhood's creek-side position creates significant Norway rat pressure from waterway access, and the aging housing stock has the structural vulnerabilities that make complete mouse exclusion challenging. Frankford's commercial Frankford Avenue corridor creates food waste management needs with associated cockroach and rodent pressure extending into adjacent residential blocks. German cockroaches spread readily through the connected row home infrastructure. Frankford's housing age and density create pest management challenges that require professional-grade treatment beyond what retail products can address.
City Best Pest Control has treated hundreds of Philadelphia County homes. Our technicians know the specific pest pressures, housing types, and seasonal patterns in Frankford, giving us an edge over national chains that treat every home the same way.
