Carpenter Ants
Contrary to common belief Carpenter Ants do not eat wood. They excavate the wood in order to build spaces for their nests, hence the name “carpenter”. They usually invade wet, moldy or damaged wood first. But often continue into dry, undamaged wood. Carpenter ants range in size from one-quarter inch to up to an inch Contact an ant infestation pest control company if you see ants moving around wooden surfaces or wooden furniture.
They can enter your home through small cracks around windows, doors, or wire holes. They build their nests outdoors in various wood sources, including tree stumps, firewood or landscaping. They need a constant water source to survive. Contact ApolloX Pest Control for ant pest control in case of an infestation.
