About The Ant Institute™

Welcome to the Ant Institute™. If you’re visiting this website, chances are you’re curious about America’s number one nuisance pest because you’ve had a recent encounter with them in or around your home. No need to panic—you’re not alone! Pest control professionals across the country agree that homeowners inquire the most about ant control, but all too often attempt (with little success) to control the pesky insects on their own.

Developed by the experts at Termidor® termiticide/insecticide and Phantom® termiticide-insecticide and reviewed by a prestigious board of experts, the Ant Institute provides clear, educational information about ants and the best ways to prevent them in and around your home. This website is built on the philosophy that an informed consumer is more likely to make smart choices about the best way to protect their home or structure from ants.

You might be familiar with our sister website, www.TermiteInstitute.com. Launched in 2006, the Termite Institute has helped to educate tens of thousands of curious homeowners about the pest that costs Americans more than $5 billion in treatment and property damage repair every year.
