Ant control is priced per job after we identify the species and the extent of the problem, because the cost depends on the type of ant, the size of the property, how far the infestation has spread and whether it is indoors, outdoors or both. We do not publish fixed online prices, but every quote is confirmed before any work starts, with no hidden costs and no call-out fee.
JG Pest Control has been treating ant infestations since 2010, our technicians are RSPH (BPCA) Level 2 certified, and we are rated 4.8 out of 5 from more than 25,000 reviews on Trustpilot. We are open every day except Christmas Day, including evenings and weekends, with same-day appointments available across the UK.
What affects the cost of ant control?
- The species of ant, common black garden ants are straightforward, while pharaoh ants or an established colony in cavity walls take more work to clear fully.
- The size and type of property, a single kitchen treatment is a smaller job than a whole house or a commercial kitchen.
- How far the infestation has spread, a problem caught early is quicker and cheaper to treat than nests that have spread through a building.
- Indoor, outdoor or both, treating the nest at source as well as the trails affects the time and materials needed.
- One-off treatment or ongoing protection, a single visit clears most domestic problems; commercial premises often prefer a recurring plan.
What is included in the price
- Identification of the ant species and the source of the infestation
- Targeted treatment of the nest and trails, not just the ants you can see
- Practical advice to keep ants from coming back
- A guarantee, with a return visit if the problem persists within the cover period
There is no call-out fee and no hidden extras. The price you agree is the price you pay.
Is professional ant control worth the cost?
Shop-bought sprays and bait kill the ants you can see but rarely reach the nest, so the colony keeps producing more. Professional ant control targets the nest at source, which clears the problem properly and usually works out cheaper than buying repeat treatments that never fully solve it.

Frequently asked questions about ant control cost
It is priced per job based on the ant species, the size of the property and how far the infestation has spread. You get a fixed quote before any work starts, with no hidden costs.
There is no fixed call-out price. Our technicians quote per job after identifying the species and the source, and the price is agreed before treatment begins.
Often yes. DIY products tackle visible ants but miss the nest, so the problem returns. Treating the nest at source once is usually better value than repeat shop-bought treatments.
No. There is no call-out fee and no hidden extras, only the agreed price for the treatment.
