Ant, Spider & Crawling Insect Control

Maintaining a bug-free home is crucial for comfort and health. Whether you're battling ants, roaches, spiders, bed bugs, or other pesky invaders, having the right insect sprays, ant baits and spider traps on hand can make all the difference. With so many products on the market, it's important to choose effective solutions that are both safe and easy to use. Let's explore some top brands and products available at Canadian Tire that can help you keep those unwanted guests at bay. 

Insect sprays: instant protection

Insect sprays work by delivering a potent dose of insecticides directly to pests, eliminating them on contact. These sprays often contain active ingredients like pyrethroids, which disrupt the nervous systems of insects and lead to rapid immobilization and death. Some sprays also offer residual effects, creating a barrier that continues to kill and repel bugs long after application. 

Ant baits: target the colony 

Ant baits are filled with a very sweet liquid that is laced with insecticides. Enticed by the sugary nectar, they carry the bait back to their nest and share it with other members of the colony, leading to its collapse. Ant baits are a highly effective solution for pest control because they target the entire colony rather than just individual ants. This method ensures a more comprehensive eradication compared to ant sprays that only kill ants on contact.

Spider control: prevent & eliminate

There are several measures you can take to ensure creepy crawlies don’t threaten to overtake your home. The primary approach involves targeted spider sprays, which kill spiders on contact and help to prevent future infestations. Another method is setting up glue traps, strategically placed in areas where spiders are commonly found, such as basements and corners. Maintaining a clean and clutter-free environment and sealing up any cracks and gaps is crucial for minimizing hiding spots for spiders to hang out in.
