CARPENTER ANTSThese large, commonly black or red ants remove wood from tree stumps, inside the walls of homes or other wooden structures. They'll to burrow into a structure and form a colony. Many times these ants inhabit homes without being seen. In the case that one is spotted, it is highly likely that there are more and are already established within the home.ODOROUS HOUSE ANTSOdorous house ants make their nests in dark, secluded places in your home or business. Common places can include under the sink, under doormats, inside your dishwasher, or even in your insulation. They prefer to eat the discarded sweets found around residential homes. But they will also eat other insects, seeds, plant secretions, and more. They cannot sting their predators, but they will defend themselves with a foul odor of what can be equated to blue cheese and coconut.

They find wet wood and take it to a place where there is good wood and support for them to create a nest. In houses, they could take cover in damp areas, for example, where there may be a leak due to plumbing issues. The wet wood being placed on dry wood could cause the moisture to spread and rot the previously good wood, causing structural damage. Thank you for your speedy response to our need for service.
