Barely lived in 3 year old home I just purchased. I noticed a few ants in kitchen and laundry room after about a month. I had the garage door opened when Massey was treating my outside and I asked him. He saw immediately (how did I miss it), the joints in my garage floor had sand and soil piles along many of the areas in the floor joints. He treated them. Two weeks later I saw some new piles. I treated myself with some type of gel, in additional treated the entire garage walls and joints with an Ortho indoor pest spray. Now examining these joints, geez these ants had a feast. Shining a flashlight into the joints I can see very VERY deep. What should I do. Should I just fill in the joints with some type of caulking, with epoxy, how do I know I got rid of these ants and they won't return to do it again? I've read something about making sure what you use in joints can expand with our ever changing temperatures. If I were to call a professional for the filling in the joints, who should I call. I can attempt to do it myself. This home is so clean, I cannot imagine others haven't had issues like this. BTW, this is not an infestation into the home yet. Thanks
