What Our Customers Are Saying
Real reviews from real customers across the North Shore
Safer Nature rid our last house of ants, and months later of mice. In each situation, Ryan called and came back a couple of weeks later to check his own work and provide further protection. Ryan and his products worked for us. We moved 6 weeks ago. The ants are knocking on the door. I just called Safer Nature.

Our Proven Ant Control Process
A systematic approach that delivers lasting results for North Shore homeowners
1
Thorough Inspection
We begin with a detailed interior and exterior inspection of your property. Our technicians look for signs of ant activity such as visible trails, nests, entry points, and areas where ants are attracted to food or moisture. We also evaluate kitchens, bathrooms, basements, foundations, and landscaping so we can design the most effective and targeted ant control plan.
2
Customized Treatment Plan
Based on our findings, we create a customized ant control plan tailored to your home or business. We’ll walk you through the process, explain treatment methods and timing, answer your questions, and make sure you’re comfortable before any work begins.
3
Targeted Ant Treatments
Using industry-approved, pet-conscious products, we treat the areas where ants live, travel, and nest. Our approach targets the colony—not just the ants you see—helping eliminate the source of the problem and prevent repeat infestations.
4
Entry Point Sealing & Prevention Guidance
We identify and address common ant entry points around doors, windows, foundations, and utility lines. We also provide guidance on sanitation, moisture control, and exterior maintenance to reduce conditions that attract ants.

Long-Term Prevention
Ant control often requires ongoing prevention. We offer follow-up services and seasonal recommendations to help keep ants from returning. Our technicians provide advice on landscaping, food storage, and moisture management to support long-term protection.
6
Follow-Up & Monitoring
We conduct follow-up checks to ensure treatments are effective and monitor for any returning ant activity. Our team remains available to answer questions and provide additional support to keep your property ant-free.
Signs You Need Professional Ant Control
Don’t wait until the problem gets worse. Watch for these common warning signs:
Visible Ant Trails
Seeing lines of ants moving along floors, walls, counters, or foundations is a clear sign of an active infestation.
Ants in Kitchens or Food Areas
Finding ants around sinks, pantries, countertops, or pet food indicates they’ve found a reliable food source inside your home.
Nests Indoors or Outdoors
Small piles of dirt, sand, or soil near foundations, walkways, or inside wall voids can signal ant nesting activity.
Recurring Ant Problems
If ants keep returning despite cleaning or DIY treatments, the colony may be well-established and require professional control.
Increased Activity After Rain or Heat
Ant infestations often worsen during wet or hot weather when colonies expand or seek shelter indoors.
Ants Entering Through Small Gaps
Seeing ants emerge from cracks, baseboards, outlets, or window frames suggests hidden entry points.
Winged Ants (Swarmers)
The presence of winged ants indoors can indicate a mature colony and potential structural concerns.
Reduced Comfort in Living or Work Spaces
If ants are interfering with daily activities or causing concern in your home or business, it’s time to call a professional.
If you've noticed any of these signs in your Amesbury home, don't delay.

Expert Ant Control for Amesbury & North Shore Communities
Serving Amesbury, MA and the Entire North Shore Region
When temperatures rise and humidity increases across the North Shore, ants begin searching for food, water, and shelter—and unfortunately, that often leads them straight into kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and foundations around your Amesbury home. At Safer Nature Pest Control, we’ve been helping local homeowners and businesses eliminate ant infestations for years, and we understand the unique challenges that come with pest control in coastal Massachusetts.
From the historic homes of downtown Amesbury to the coastal properties of Salisbury and Newburyport, from the wooded neighborhoods of Haverhill to the vibrant communities of Beverly and Salem, we’ve seen every type of ant problem the North Shore has to offer. Our experience throughout the region has shown us that no two infestations are the same, which is why we never rely on a one-size-fits-all approach to ant control.
Why Ants Are Drawn to North Shore Homes
The North Shore’s climate and landscape create ideal conditions for ants. Warm summers, fluctuating coastal weather, and high moisture levels make homes especially attractive to species like carpenter ants, pavement ants, and odorous house ants. Many of the area’s older homes feature wood framing, aging foundations, and small gaps around doors, windows, and utility lines—perfect entry points for ants seeking food and nesting areas.
Our proximity to wooded areas, marshlands, gardens, and water sources like the Merrimack River means ant colonies are active throughout the year. During heavy rain, heat waves, or seasonal changes, ants often move indoors to find consistent food and moisture, quickly turning a small problem into a widespread infestation if left untreated.
The Safer Nature Difference in Amesbury & Beyond
What sets Safer Nature Pest Control apart from other ant control companies on the North Shore is our focus on safe, effective, and long-term solutions. We don’t just spray and leave. Our approach starts with identifying the specific ant species, locating nesting sites, and understanding what’s attracting them to your property. From there, we apply targeted, eco-conscious treatments designed to eliminate the colony and disrupt future activity.
As a locally owned and operated company, we’re deeply connected to the communities we serve. We live here, work here, and understand the construction styles, seasonal pest patterns, and environmental concerns unique to the North Shore. When you call Safer Nature Pest Control, you’re working with a knowledgeable local team—not a national company using generic treatments.
Comprehensive Ant Control Across the North Shore
Whether you’re dealing with ants in Amesbury, Newburyport, Haverhill, Beverly, Salem, Gloucester, Rockport, or anywhere else on the North Shore, Safer Nature Pest Control is ready to help. We provide prompt service and customized treatment plans for homes of all types—from historic properties and waterfront homes to newer construction and commercial buildings.
From minor ant trails to severe carpenter ant infestations causing structural concerns, our technicians have the experience and training to handle it all. Our goal is to not only eliminate ants from your home or business, but to help keep them out—protecting your property with solutions that are effective, responsible, and built to last.
