Households
Your flat or house in Paris is never cut off from the rest of the building. The technician also looks at how the pest reaches you, and tells you what falls to you, your landlord or the co-owners.

Local ground: Paris
Beneath Paris, connecting cellars, cobbled courtyards and sewers let brown rats move from one building to the next without surfacing. Above ground, shared walls and common risers allow cockroaches and bed bugs to pass between neighbours.
In Paris, this context shapes the inspection: where to look for the first signs, which entry points to check first.
Signs to look for at home
- 01Trails of ants returning to the same spot every day
- 02Small mounds of sand or dust at the foot of a wall
- 03Winged ants appearing in a room in warm weather
- 04Ants in the sugar bowl, the honey jar or the cat's bowl
Recognise one of these signs? Note where you saw it: the technician will start there.
Indoor ant removal: what the technician does
Areas and situations covered
- Black garden ant (Lasius niger)
- Pharaoh ant
- Kitchens, worktops and cupboards
- Bathrooms and pipe entries
- Balconies, terraces and window sills
- Grocers, bakeries and restaurant kitchens
A trail of ants across a worktop is only the visible face of the colony. The queen and the brood stay hidden in a wall, under tiles or in a planter, and spraying the workers sometimes makes the colony split into several nests.
The technician starts by identifying the species, then follows the trails back to place a slow-acting gel bait on their routes. Workers carry it to the nest and share it with the rest of the colony, queen included. The cracks and gaps they use to get in are then sealed.
Sentinel Protocol
Four stages, in this order, in Paris as everywhere else
The technician treats nothing before understanding the problem, and does not leave without sealing or flagging the entry points.
Step 1
Inspect
Species identified, trails followed back to their entry points and likely nest sites located.
Step 2
Treat
Drops of slow-acting gel bait placed on the routes, in corners out of reach of children and pets.
Step 3
Sanitise
Cracks and gaps around pipes resealed, advice on removing sources of sugar and crumbs.
Step 4
Follow up
Follow-up visit as set out in the protocol: activity level checked, bait topped up if needed, photo report.
Paris: your questions before booking
Do I need to be there during the visit in Paris?
Yes, you or someone you trust: the technician needs access to the rooms, cellar or premises concerned, and explains what they found before leaving.
Is the price different in Paris?
No, it is the same across Île-de-France: from €132 incl. VAT for a first visit, then adjusted for floor area and number of visits. You see the total before paying.
What do I get after the treatment?
The same day, a photo report by email: signs found in Paris, treatment applied, entry points sealed or still to seal, and advice to limit the risk of a return.
How do I recognise a pharaoh ant?
It is a tiny ant, about 2 mm long and pale yellow, often found in heated buildings. It has several queens and splits up when disturbed, so it is treated with bait only, never sprayed.
Can a food shop be treated without closing?
In most cases, yes: the bait is applied in very small amounts, away from food and preparation surfaces. The technician agrees a quiet slot with you, often before opening time.
Not sure what you saw in Paris?
Book an inspection: the technician identifies the pest, treats if needed and emails you the photo report the same day.
