Flying Ant Day 2025 – Be Prepared in Milton Keynes and Surrounding Areas

Every summer across the UK, millions of ants take to the skies in a sudden, swarming event known as Flying Ant Day.

If you’re seeing flying ants emerging in large numbers, you’re not alone – and Milton Keynes Pest Control is here to help.

What Is Flying Ant Day?

Flying Ant Day refers to the short window during summer when queen ants and male ants leave their nests to mate mid-air – a process called “nuptial flight.” While the exact date varies each year, this often occurs on a hot, humid day following rainfall, typically between July and August.

When Will Flying Ant Day Happen in 2025?

Based on previous years and climate trends, Flying Ant Day in the UK 2025 is expected to occur during the second half of July. However, some areas – especially warmer southern regions like Milton Keynes – may experience early waves as soon as late June.

Are Flying Ants a Problem?

While flying ants aren’t dangerous on their own, they can:

• Indicate a large ant colony nearby
• Enter homes through open windows and vents
• Attract birds or other pests due to mass activity
• Lead to long-term infestations if left untreated
