Main floor had little ants eve...

Main floor had little ants everywhere and nothing would stop them, especially late at night. Couldn't let my toddler play on floor with her things, as ants would appear. Ohio Exterminating came out right away, provided reasonable quote and we had it treated the following day. Super happy how activity died down and then disappeared after a week. Felt very comfortable around everyone I met with the company and I will eagerly spread my great experience with friends.
